`Dr. Toliyat was an Editor of IEEE Transactions on Energy Conversion. He was Chair of the IEEE-
`IAS Industrial Power Conversion Systems Department of IEEE-IAS, and is a member of Sigma
`Xi. He is a fellow of the IEEE, the recipient of the 2008 Industrial Electronics Society Electric
`Machines Committee Second Best Paper Award as well as the recipient of the IEEE Power
`Engineering Society Prize Paper Awards in 1996 and 2006 and the 2006 IEEE Industry
`Applications Society Transactions Third Prize Paper Award. His main research interests and
`experience include analysis and design of electrical machines, variable speed drives for traction
`and propulsion applications, fault diagnosis of electric machinery, and sensorless variable speed
`drives. Prof. Toliyat has supervised more than 80 graduate students, post docs, and research
`engineers. He has published over 420 technical papers, presented more than 80 invited lectures
`all over the world, and has 15 issued and pending US patents. He is the author of DSP-Based
`Electromechanical Motion Control, CRC Press, 2003, the co-editor of Handbook of Electric
`Motors - 2nd Edition, Marcel Dekker, 2004, and the co-author of Electric Machines – Modeling,

`Teaching:
`
`I stress the use of interdisciplinary ideas in my teaching. Rather than teaching students to
`specialize in a narrow area, I try to provide valuable perspective on how ideas relate with concepts
`students have already seen in other classes. With these interdisciplinary goals in mind, I have
`purposely taught courses in two different areas within my department: power electronics, and
`electric machinery. I have developed and taught four new courses in the area of electromechanical
`motion devices. These are:
`1. ECEN 611 General Theory of Electromechanical Motion Devices, 3 credits
`2. ECEN 612 Computer Aided Design of Electromechanical Motion Devices, 3 credits
`3. ECEN 442 DSP-Based Electromechanical Motion Control, 3 credits
`4. ECEN 689 Advanced DSP-Based Electromechanical Motion Control, 3 credits
