Prof. Rotimi Sadiku attained his BSc. [Hons] in 1980 and PhD in 1986 from the University of Strathclyde, UK, where he specialized in Polymer Physics. Following his graduation, he took up a position as a lecturer, at the Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria until September 1989, when he took-up a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship position at the University of Genova/CNR, in Italy (1989-1990). He returned to Nigeria and joined the Federal University of Technology, Minna, as a senior lecturer, in January 1991. In 1997, he spent a year as a Research Fellow at the KTH Institute of Technology, in Stockholm, Sweden. He also had a 3-month research exposure at the Faculty of Physics, at the University of Freiburg, Germany. He then returned to the Federal University of Technology, in Minna. In July 1999, he went to the Stellenbosch University as a Research Fellow, where he spent 2 years, following which, he returned to the Federal University of Technology, in Minna as a senior lecturer in June 2001. After another year at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, he took up a position as a Principal Scientist with Sasol, in Sasolburg, RSA. He spent 1.5 years with Sasol and then took up his current position, as a Research Professor at the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT), in Pretoria in Jan. 2004. He is the author/co-author of more than 300 journal articles and conference proceedings and has written more than 80 book chapters. He is also the co-innovator of 9 patented inventions.
Prof. Yskandar Hamam received his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the American University of Beirut, in 1966, and then went on to achieve his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Manchester (UMIST) in 1970 and 1972. From 1966 to 1968, he worked as an engineer on various projects in Beirut. He became an Adjunct Professor with the Universidade Federal Rio de Janeiro, from 1972 to 1973 and then became an Assistant Professor with the American U
