只剩骄傲Levent Gürel(S’87–M’92–SM’97)was born in
Izmir,Turkey,in1964.He received the B.Sc.degree
from the Middle East Technical University(METU),
Ankara,Turkey,in1986,and the M.S.and Ph.D.
degrees from the University of Illinois,Urbana
(UIUC),in1988and1991,respectively,all in
electrical engineering.
He joined the Thomas J.Watson Research Center,
IBM Corporation,Yorktown Heights,New York,in
1991,where he worked as a Research Staff Member
on the electromagnetic compatibility(EMC)prob-lems related to electronic packaging,the use of microwave processes in the manufacturing and testing of electronic circuits,and the development of fast solvers for interconnect modeling.He then became an Associate Professor with the Institute of Higher Education,Ankara,in1993.Since1994,he has been a Faculty Member,Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Bilkent University,Ankara.He was a Visiting Associate Professor at the Center for Computational Electromagnetics(CCEM),UIUC,for one semester in1997.His research interests include the development of fast algorithms for computational electromagnetics(CEM)and the application thereof to scattering and radiation problems involving large and complicated scatterers, antennas and radars,frequency-selective surfaces,and high-speed electronic circuits.He is also interested in the theoretical and computational aspects of electromagnetic compatibility and interference analyses.Ground penetrating radars and other subsurface scattering applications are also among his current research interests.
Dr.Gurel is currently serving as the Chairman of the AP/MTT/ED Chapters of the IEEE Turkey
Section.
