Personal Statement
I am an academic member of staff with 30 years of teaching and research experience in Electronic & Electrical Engineering. During this period, I have secured research funding of approximately £2 million and have completed them successfully. I am also involved in international collaboration and knowledge exchange involving institutions in Europe and the Asia Pacific region.
Teaching Interests
I teach electromagnetics at level 3 of a 4 level degree programme.
I also teach power systems electromagnetic compatibility at level 5 of a 5-year degree programme and at MSc level.
Education/Academic qualification
Master of Business Administration, University of Strathclyde
