ECE Welcomes Two New Faculty Members

The ECE Department is excited to announce the addition of two new faculty members starting in the fall 2004 semester:

Dr. Mario Marconi joins the department as a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He earned his Ph.D. in physics from Buenos Aires University in Argentina and previously served as an Associate Professor for the Department of Physics at that institution. Dr. Marconi previously served as a visiting scientist at CSU, collaborating with ECE professor Dr. Jorge Rocca at various times throughout the past eight years. Dr. Marconi is a member of the Optical Society of America, the Institute of Physics, and the Argentinean Physical Society.

Dr. Steven C. Reising is a new associate professor in the ECE department. Dr. Reising received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering at Washington University in St. Louis and 1991 and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Stanford University. His research experience includes work at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C. Dr. Reising's research interests are in microwave remote sensing, radar and radiometer systems, microwave circuits, and electromagnetics. Prior to his arrival at CSU, he was a faculty member in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst since 1998. Dr. Reising received the Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Program Award in 2000, the Lilly Teaching Fellowship in 2001-02, the NSF CAREER Award in 2003, and the Barbara H. and Joseph I. Goldstein Outstanding Junior Faculty Award in 2004.
