Fazle Hussain

A. K. M. Fazle Hussain (; born 20 January 1943, in Bangladesh) is a professor of mechanical engineering at Texas Tech University.

Education Hussain graduated with a BS in mechanical engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology in 1963. At UH, he held the Cullen Professorship in mechanical engineering.

In 2001, Hussain was inducted into the National Academy of Engineering for "fundamental experiments and concepts concerning important structures in turbulence, vortex dynamics, and acoustics, and for new turbulence measurement techniques." He is also a member of the advisory board at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology.
