Long Bio
Brian Skromme joined the Arizona State University faculty in 1989, where he is presently a professor in solid-state electronics in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering. He was also assistant dean for academic and student affairs in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering from 2011-2019.
From 1985 to 1989, he was a member of the technical staff at Bellcore. He has written more than 140 refereed publications in solid-state electronics and engineering education. His areas of expertise include compound semiconductor materials and devices, wide bandgap semiconductors, optical characterization, and engineering education research. He received a number of awards for both teaching and research, most recently the national Technology Integration Award from the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department Heads Association (ECEDHA) for his work on step-based tutoring software for engineering education.
