Metin Şengül received his
B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in
Electronics Engineering from
Istanbul University, Turkey
in 1996 and 1999,
respectively. He completed
his Ph.D. in 2006 at Işık
University in Istanbul,
Turkey. He worked as a
technician at Istanbul
University from 1990 to 1997
and was a circuit design
engineer at the R&D Labs of the Prime Ministry Office of
Turkey between 1997 and 2000. He was employed as a
lecturer and assistant professor at Kadir Has University,
Istanbul, Turkey between 2000 and 2010. Dr. Şengül was a
visiting researcher at the Institute for Information
Technology, Technische Universität Ilmenau, Ilmenau,
Germany in 2006 for six months. Currently, he is an associate
professor at Kadir Has University, Istanbul, Turkey and
working on microwave matching networks/amplifiers, device
modeling, circuit design via modeling and network synthesis.
