Dr. Miguel Jagessar
Dr. Miguel Jagessar
| Dr.
Jagessar is a renaissance man and has over 23 years of experience in Tertiary
education. He received his PhD in Biomechanics at The University of Trinidad
and Tobago in collaboration with the University of British Columbia in 2013. He also has an MPhil in Agricultural
Engineering (UWI) and a BSc in Mechanical Engineering (UWI). He is currently
an Assistant Professor at UTT and the Programme Leader of the Utilities and
Sustainable Engineering Unit. He is published with 18 peer reviewed
publications, which consist of 1 international US patent, 1 Industrial
Design, 4 in scientific journals and 12 in conference proceedings. Dr. Jagessar is an academic, an entrepreneur,
an engineer, a natural bodybuilder, and an inventor. His specialty is
Engineering Design which spans several diverse areas such as mechanisation of
agricultural and food processes, biomechanics, ergonomics, design and
manufacture of exercise equipment. The coupling of his twin passions of body consciousness and academic research led to both Doctoral work in Biomechanics at The University of Trinidad & Tobago and his entrepreneurial interests in the design and manufacture of exercise equipment. Dr. Jagessar has competed at several National and International level bodybuilding competitions, and he is out to prove through science that a healthy, strong and aesthetically pleasing body can be built naturally. Findings from his research have provided design parameters for development of effective bench press equipment. His dream is to develop a Fitness Industry for sustainable employment for Trinbagonians. Among his inventions/innovations are the “Therapeutic Exercise Contour Support (US Patent No. 10857417)”, ErgoBench, Plantain Peeler, Cassava Press, Sweet Potato Slicer and a unique “Board Game”. This latter product won 1st place prize at UTT’s Business Plan competition in 2009. He was a recipient of the Canada-CARICOM leadership scholarship in 2009. He is currently engaged in research and development of the Therapeutic Exercise Contour Support. Other research interest includes performance analysis of human motion during strength training, Computer Aided Engineering and Computational Fluid Dynamics, Water Treatment Plants for Rural areas, Patenting and Entrepreneurship and Development of Playground equipment for schools and communities. |
