Chi-Seng Lam received the Ph.D. degree in electrical and electronics engineering from the University of Macau (UM), Macau, China, in 2012. He completed the Clare Hall Study Programme at the University of Cambridge, Cambridge, U.K., in 2019.
From 2006 to 2009, he was an Electrical and Mechanical Engineer with UM. From 2009 to 2012, he simultaneously worked as a Laboratory Technician at UM, and pursued his Ph.D. degree in part-time. In 2013, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, China. He is currently an Associate Professor with the State Key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI and the Institute of Microelectronics, UM, and also with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Faculty of Science and Technology, UM. He has coauthored or co-edited four books and more than 130 technical journals and conference papers. He holds five U.S. and three Chinese patents. His research interests include power quality compensators, PV energy generation system, integrated power electronics controllers, power management integrated circuits, and wireless power transfer.
Dr. Lam was the recipient or co-recipient of the IEEE PES Chapter Outstanding Engineer Award in 2016, the Best Track Paper Award of APPEEC 2019, the Best Paper Award of ICTA 2019, the Merit Paper Award of the 3rd RIUPEEEC Conference in 2005, the Macao Science and Technology Invention Award (Second Class and Third Class) and the Research and Development Award for Postgraduates (Ph.D.) in 2018, 2014, and 2012, respectively. He was the Vice-Chair of the IEEE Macau Section from 2016 to 2020 and the Chair of the IEEE Macau CAS Chapter from 2017 to 2018. He is currently the Chair of the IEEE Macau IES Chapter, the Vice-Chair of the IEEE Macau PES/PELS Joint Chapter and the Power Quality Subcommittee Chair of the IEEE IES Technical Committee on Power Electronics. He currently serves as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, the IEEE Open Journal of the Industrial Electronics Society and the IEEE Access.
I am currently looking for Master and PhD degree candidates, research assistants, post-doctoral scholars with strong interests in my research interests.
Applicants should submit their CVs to Dr. Chi-Seng LAM by email: cslam@um.edu.mo or discuss with him directly if any information is needed.
