Professor

Robert W. Erickson is a prominent professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering at the University of Colorado, Boulder, where he has been a faculty member since 1982. He holds B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology. Erickson has served as department chair twice and co-directs the Colorado Power Electronics Center alongside Professor Dragan Maksimovic. He is a recognized leader in his field, being a Fellow of the IEEE and the CU/NREL Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute. Erickson authored the widely used textbook Fundamentals of Power Electronics and has published around one hundred journal and conference papers on power electronics. His research focuses on modeling and control of power conversion systems, modular/multilevel converter systems, and applications of power electronics in electric vehicles and renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Notably, he received the IEEE Power Electronics Society Transactions Prize Paper Award in 1996 and was named CU-Boulder Inventor of the Year in 2015.
