Curriculum Vitae of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Karl-Heinz Gonschorek

Karl-Heinz Gonschorek was born in a small village close to Hanover (Northern Germany) in Sept. 1946. In 1975 he received the Dipl.-Ing. (M.S.E.E) in electromagnetics, concentrating on high frequencies, from the University of Hanover. From 1975 to 1980 he was a scientific co-worker at the University of the Armed Forces in Hamburg.

In 1980 he wrote his doctoral thesis (PhD-Thesis) on electromagnetic pulse coupling of arbitrarily located thin electrodes. From 1980 to 1988 he was with the Research and Development Group of Siemens in Erlangen, Germany, specializing in numerical field calculation and problems related to electromagnetic compatibility. In Oct. 1988 he became a professor of electromagnetic influences at the Hamburg-Harburg University of Technology, Germany. Since 1995 he holds the Siemens Foundation Chair on Electromagnetic Compatibility at the Dresden University of Technology, Germany. In April 2000 his collegues electeted him to be the Dean of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology for a period of three years. He is author and co-author of more than 130 papers, member of IEEE and VDE, chairman of the bi-annual EMC congresss.
