Academics Technology — 16 November 2010

hossein hashemiHossein Hashemi is one of Iran’s and also world’s most influential scientist, mathematician, senior researcher and  one the youngest associated professors at the The Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical Engineering (TMH DoEE) and holder of Gordon S. Marshall Early Career Chair of Electrical Engineering from 2007-09.

Hossein Hashemi joined the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Southern California (USC) as an Assistant Professor in 2003 only 25 years old! Professor Hashemi is also winner of 2008 – Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Young Faculty Award.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is an agency of the United States Department of Defense responsible for the development of new technology  for use by the military.

DARPA has been responsible for funding the development of many technologies which have had a major effect on the world, including computer networking, as well as NLS, which was both the first hypertext  system, and an important precursor to the contemporary ubiquitous graphical user interface.

Intelligent future technology. . .

The Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical Engineering (TMH DoEE) is the largest department in the Viterbi School of Engineering. The Department offers B.S. degrees in electrical engineering, M.S. degrees in both electrical engineering and computer engineering, and Ph.D. degrees in both electrical engineering and computer engineering.

Bionic hand electronics.

(TMH DoEE) also offer B.S. degrees in computer engineering and computer science jointly with the Computer Science Department. In recent years, University of Southern California undergraduates in engineering as a group are among the brightest in the university, as measured by their incoming GPA and SAT scores, placing them in the same category as incoming undergraduates at the top five engineering schools in the USWNR rankings.

Education:
1997 at age 19 – B.S. Electronics Engineering Sharif University of Technology, Tehran-Iran.
1999 at age 21 – M.S. Electronics Engineering Sharif University of Technology.
2001 at age 23 – M.S. Electrical Engineering University of Southern California.
2003 at age 25 – Ph.D. Electrical Engineering California Institute of Technology.
2005 at age 27 – Professor at The Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical Engineering

Integrated Circuits and Systems deals with integrated realization of complex functions on small chips.  Current research in this area includes integrated circuits for biomedical implantable systems; biological-inspired integrated circuits; integrated circuits for healthcare, radio-frequency, microwave, and millimeter-wave integrated systems for wireless communication, radar, and imaging; analog, digital, and mixed-signal integrated circuits; integrated circuits using new devices such as nano-tubes and nano-wires; and hybrid electro-optical integrated systems.

Professor Hossein Hashemi joined the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Southern California as an Assistant Professor in 2003, where he was the holder of Gordon S. Marshall Early Career Chair of Electrical Engineering from 2007-09.  He was an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and systems Part I: Regular Papers (2006–2007) and an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and systems—Part II: Express Briefs (2004–2005).

Awards, Astonishing and Recognitions:
1999 – CalTech engineering and applied science division fellowship award.
2000 – Walker von Brimer Foundation Outstanding Accomplishment Award.
2000 – Analog Devices Outstanding Student Designer Award.
2000 – Outstanding Accomplishment Award presented by the von Brimer Foundation.
2001 – Outstanding Student Designer Award presented by Analog Devices.
2001 – Intel Foundation Graduate Fellowship Award.
2002 – Intel Fellowship.
2003 – Young Scholar Award presented by the Association of Professors and Scholars of Iranian Heritage.
2004 – IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits Best Paper Award.
2007 – Lewis Winner Award for Outstanding Paper presented.
2008 – Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Young Faculty Award.
2008 – USC Viterbi School of Engineering.
2009 – Junior Faculty Research Award.
2009 – NSF CAREER Award.

The study of the fundamentals of communication circuits and systems, along with integrated implementations, constitutes the core of Hashemi’s research. Besides high-speed and high-frequency integrated circuits, he is also interested in bio-inspired and bio-medical electronics.
