Dr. Futoshi Kuroki

Professor, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Information Science

Dr. Kuroki is an internationally recognized expert in the field of millimeter-wave engineering. He has applied for more than 40 patents and has authored 15 books and over 350 technical publications including international conference proceedings.

Students in his advanced electromagnetic systems laboratory are given no holiday. They spend more than 50 hours each week on their studies. Through the research program, they will be able to master the necessary skills to design and develop electromagnetic circuits using CAD-based simulator tools and fabrication process together with experimental equipment. They must present the progress of their research activities every week in Japanese and English to make presentations at national meetings and international conferences of several kinds. Some students were awarded outstanding prizes such as the Best Paper Presentation Prize in 1995 from the IEE, Japan, the Young Researchers’ Award in 1998 and 2002, the Electronics Society Student Award in 2007 from the IEICE, Japan, and the Best Paper Award in 2008 from the China Japan Microwave Conference.
