Professor Chan received his PhD from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) in 1987 under the tutelage of Professor Raj Mittra. Prior to joining the City University of Hong Kong in 1996, he was a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle. Since 1998, he has been a Chair Professor of Electronic Engineering and is currently the Director of State Key Laboratory of Terahertz and Millimeter Waves (City University of Hong Kong). Initially trained in computational electromagnetics, his research interest has been extended to antennas, microwave and millimeter-wave components and systems, and more recently, terahertz science and technology. Professor Chan was elected a Fellow of IEEE in 2002 for his contributions to computational electromagnetics. He received the 2019 IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Harrington-Mittra Award in Computational Electromagnetics and the 2019 Distinguished Alumni Award from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, UIUC.
