Education and career

edit

He earned his BSc (First Class) in Surveying (Geomatics) from the University of Nairobi in 1997,[5] before moving to Australia where he studied for a PhD at UNSW Sydney.[6][7] He completed his PhD in 2002,[2][8] working on structural health monitoring of engineering structures, such as suspension bridges and tall buildings, using global positioning system.[7]

After his PhD, Ogaja worked at Geoscience Australia before joining California State University, Fresno in 2007 as an assistant professor.[5][3][9] He also worked for GPS companies and wrote books and articles on GPS and geomatics engineering.[1][10][11][12]
