Electrical and Computer Engineering Professor and Associate Dean of Research of the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology has just been named a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). “We in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering are delighted to announce that Dr. Chuck Bunting has been named a Fellow of IEEE for educational contributions to electromagnetic compatibility and reverberation chambers” said department head Jeffrey Young. Per the IEEE, each year “following a rigorous evaluation procedure, the IEEE Fellow Committee recommends a select group of recipients for elevation to IEEE Fellow. Less than 0.1% of voting members are selected annually for this member grade elevation.”

 

Dr. Bunting was nominated by the IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility Society (EMC), which is THE leading international organization in his field of research. It is quite the honor. IEEE is the world’s largest technical organization with over 420,000 members worldwide. It is the number one organization for those who do electrical engineering or computer engineering related research. https://www.ieee.org/index.html

 

The School currently has four IEEE Fellows, namely, Regents Professor Gary Yen, Regents Professor Rama Ramakumar, Professor Jeffrey Young, and Regents Emeritus Professor Daniel Grischkowsky. Counting Professor Bunting, about one out of every five faculty members in the School are IEEE Fellows, thus bearing credence to the importance and relevancy of the School’s internationally renowned research programs.

 

Bunting’s research interests include electromagnetic characterization and application of reverberation chambers, fundamental variational principles and computational electromagnetics, analysis of optical and microwave structures using numerical methods (including finite element techniques), antenna systems, and radio frequency (RF design).

Congratulations to Chuck for this well deserved honor!
