Standards in Electromagnetic Compatibility

Practical Ideas from Professors Alistair Duffy (PDF)

Alistair Duffy

Professor of Electromagnetics, and Associate Dean of Research and Innovation in the Faculty of Technology at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK

De Montfort University was incorporated as a university in 1992; immediately prior to that it was a polytechnic (Leicester Polytechnic). One aspect of polytechnic education that is still strong is the emphasis on skills development for the next phase of students’ lives—whether that is a research career or an industrial one. Should students progress along the research path, an increasing emphasis in the United Kingdom is placed on the demonstration that the research has impact outside a purely research environment.
