Leia o resumo, em inglês, sobre os temas a serem tratados na apresentação, bem como as especializações do professor Sevgi:
This presentation aims to discuss science, university, research, and academic rankings. First, the definition of science will be given, and characteristics features will be outlined. Second, a flow chart of the scientific method will be drawn. The process of why science and technology ask, respectively, the questions “Why” and “How” will be presented. Third, the definition of university will be given with the earliest institutes. The reasons why Bologna and Sorbonne (Paris) Universities are assumed as the first universities will be explained. The three fundamental tasks of a university, Education, Research, and Societal Responsibility, will be summarized. Finally, well-known worldwide academic ranking centers and their methodologies will be given, and 2021 university rankings will be listed.
Prof. Dr. Levent Sevgi is a Fellow of the IEEE (since 2009) and the recipient of IEEE APS Chen-To Tai Distinguished Educator Award (2021). He received his B. Eng., M. Eng., and PhD degrees in Electronic Engineering from Istanbul Technical University (ITU) in 1982, 1984, and 1990, respectively. In 1987, while working on his Ph.D., he was awarded a fellowship that allowed him to work with Prof. L. B. Felsen at Weber Research Institute / New York Polytechnic University York for two years. His work at the Polytechnic concerned the propagation phenomena in non-homogeneous open and closed waveguides.
He was with Istanbul Technical University (1991–1998), TUBITAK-MRC, Information Technologies Research Institute (1999–2000), Weber Research Institute / NY Polytechnic University (1988–1990), Scientific Research Group of Raytheon Systems Canada (1998 – 1999), Center for Defense Studies, ITUV-SAM (1993 –1998 and 2000–2002) and with the University of Massachusetts, Lowell (UML) MA/USA as a full-time faculty (2012 – 2013), with DOGUS University (2001-2014) and with Istanbul OKAN University (2014 – 2021). He has been with Istanbul ATLAS University Since Sep 2022.
He has been an IEEE AP-S Distinguished Lecturer for the term 2020-2022. He served one term in the IEEE AP-S AdCom (2013-2015) and one term as a member of the IEEE AP-S Field Award Committee (2018-2019). He was the writer/editor of the “Testing ourselves” Column in the IEEE AP Magazine (2007-2020), a member of the IEEE AP-S Education Committee (2006-2021), He has also served on several editorial boards (EB) of other prestigious journals/magazines, such as the IEEE AP Magazine (since 2007), Wiley’s International Journal of RFMiCAE (2002-2018), and the IEEE Access (2017-2019 and 2020 – 2022). He is the founding chair of the EMC TURKIYE International Conferences (www.emcturkiye.org).
He has been involved with complex electromagnetic problems and complex communication and radar systems for nearly three decades. His research study has focused on propagation in complex environments; electromagnetic scattering and diffraction; RCS prediction and reduction; EMC/EMI modelling, simulation, tests, and measurements; multi-sensor integrated wide area surveillance systems; surface wave HF radars; analytical and numerical methods in electromagnetics; FDTD, TLM, FEM, SSPE, and MoM techniques and their applications; bio-electromagnetics. He is also interested in novel approaches in engineering education, teaching electromagnetics via virtual tools. He also teaches popular science lectures such as Science, Technology, and Society.
He has given dozens of seminars, invited/keynote talks, and organized/presented several tutorials, training sessions, and short courses from half-day to three days in universities/institutes all around the World. He has published more than a dozen special issues/sections in many journals as a guest editor and/or a co-guest editor.
His recent keynote talks / distinguished lectures are: (i) From Engineering Electromagnetics towards Electromagnetic Engineering: Teaching, Training Next Generations, MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Nov 9, 2021, MA-USA (ii) Radiowave Propagation Modeling and Simulation, University of Toronto, Oct 29, 2021, ON-CA, and (iii) Electromagnetic Diffraction Modeling and Simulation, University of Syracuse, Nov 11, 2021, NY-USA.
He has published many books/book chapters in English and Turkish, over 180 journal/magazine papers/tutorials and attended nearly 100 international conferences/symposiums. His three books Complex Electromagnetic Problems and Numerical Simulation Approaches, Electromagnetic Modeling and Simulation, and Radiowave Propagation and Parabolic Equation Modeling, were published by the IEEE Press – WILEY in 2003, 2014, and 2017, respectively. His fourth and fifth books, A Practical Guide to EMC Engineering (Sep 2017) and Diffraction Modeling and Simulation with MATLAB (Feb 2021) were published by ARTECH HOUSE.
His h-index is 37, with a record of more than 4750 citations (source: Google Scholar, Aug 2022).
