Wassim M. Haddad received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in mechanical engineering from Florida Tech in 1983, 1984, and 1987. Since 1994 he has been with the School of Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Tech, where he holds the rank of Professor, the David Lewis Chair in Dynamical Systems and Control, and Chair of the Flight Mechanics and Control Discipline. He also holds a joint Professor appointment with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech. Dr. Haddad has made numerous contributions to the development of nonlinear dynamical systems, information theory, and control science and engineering. His work in all of these areas has had a tremendous impact on technology developers in the aerospace, biomedical, and electrical engineering communities. His transdisciplinary research in dynamical systems and control is documented in over 650 archival journal and conference publications, and 8 books in the areas of science, mathematics, medicine, and engineering. Dr. Haddad is an NSF Presidential Faculty Fellow, a member of the Academy of Nonlinear Sciences, an IEEE Fellow, and the recipient of the 2014 AIAA Pendray Aerospace Literature Award.
