I am looking for highly motivated Post Doc and PhD students. If you are interested in my research areas, please send your resume and statement of research to Lei.Wu@stevens.edu.

Dr. Lei Wu is Anson Wood Burchard Chair Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Stevens Institute of Technology. He was a Professor with the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Clarkson University, Potsdam, NY, USA till 2018. He received early promotion twice at Clarkson: from Assistant to Associate Professor, and from Associate to Full Professor. He received the B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering and the M.S. degree in Systems Engineering from Xi’an Jiaotong University, Xi’an, China, in 2001 and 2004, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT), Chicago, IL, USA, in 2008. He was a senior research associate at the Robert W. Galvin Center for Electricity Innovation at IIT during 2008-2010. He worked as summer Visiting Faculty at NYISO in 2012.

His primary research and teaching areas are focused on power and energy system optimization and control, with specific interests in the modeling of large-scale power systems with a high penetration of demand response and renewable energy, and community resilience microgrid. He is the recipient of Transactions Prize Paper Award from the IEEE Power and Energy Society (PES) in 2009, and the IEEE PES Student Prize Paper Award in Honor of T. Burke Hayes as adviser in 2014.

He is the receipt of NSF CAREER Award in 2013 and IBM Smarter Planet Faculty Innovation Award in 2011. He served as Editor for several internationally recognized journals, including the IEEE Transactions on Power System and the IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy. He is elevated to the Fellow of IEEE (Class of 2022) for the contributions to stochastic modeling and optimization of power systems and large interdependent infrastructures.
