`for “Contributions to the theory and design of hybrid electric vehicles”. In 2003 he was selected for IEEE
`Undergraduate Teaching Award “For outstanding contributions to advanced curriculum development and
`teaching of power electronics and drives.” In 2004 he was elected to the Robert M. Kennedy endowed Chair in
`Electrical Engineering at Texas A&M University. In 2005 he was elected as the Fellow of Society of
`Automotive Engineers (SAE). He is the co-author of 20 books on power electronics, motor drives and advanced
`vehicle systems, including Vehicular Electric Power Systems, Marcel Dekker, Inc. 2003 and “Modern Electric
`Hybrid Vehicles and Fuel Cell Vehicles – Fundamentals, Theory, and Design”, CRC Press, 2004. In addition
`to being the co-author of over 500 publications, and 23 books in the above fields, he has over 30 granted or
`pending US and EU patents. He has also been consultant to over 60 companies, US government agencies and
`internationals organizations. His current research work is in energy systems, power electronics, motor drives,
`hybrid vehicles and their control systems, and sustainable energy engineering.
`
`Dr. Ehsani has been a member of IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) AdCom, past Chairman of
`PELS Educational Affairs Committee, past Chairman of IEEE-IAS Industrial Power Converter Committee and
`past chairman of the IEEE Myron Zucker Student-Faculty Grant program. He was the General Chair of IEEE
`Power Electronics Specialist Conference for 1990. He is the founder of IEEE Power and Propulsion
`Conference, the founding chairman of the IEEE VTS Vehicle Power and Propulsion and chairman of
`Convergence Fellowship Committees. In 2002 he was elected to the Board of Governors of VTS. He has also
`served on the editorial board of several technical journals and was the associate editor of IEEE Transactions on
`Industrial Electronics and IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology. He is a Life Fellow of IEEE, a past
`IEEE Industrial Electronics Society and Vehicular Technology Society Distinguished Speaker, IEEE Industry
