Personal Statement
I am a professional engineer (registered in the UK) with more than 30 years of teaching, research and consultancy experience in Electronic & Electrical Engineering. During this period, I have worked with UK and overseas organisations on various projects related to lightning protection; large systems electromagnetic compatibility; and electrical plant monitoring and diagnostics. I am also very active in the activities of CIGRE and was the Convener of C4.208 and C4.30. Additionally, I represent the UK in the Standards Maintenance of IEC61400-24. I am currently an Honorary Research Professor at the University since January 2023.
Teaching Interests
I have taught electromagnetics at level 3 of a 4 level degree programme.
I have also taught power systems electromagnetic compatibility at level 5 of a 5-year degree programme and at MSc level.
