Prof. Mark Lundstrom

Interim Dean, College of Engineering

Don and Carol Scifres Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Special Advisor on Microelectronics to Executive Vice President of Purdue University for Strategic Initiatives

Mark Lundstrom is the Don and Carol Scifres Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. He currently serves as Interim Dean of Engineering and in 2020 served as Acting Dean of Engineering. Lundstrom is also spearheading the college’s new microelectronics economic and workforce development initiatives and is a Senior Research Fellow for the Krach Institute for Tech Diplomacy.

Lundstrom earned his BEE and MSEE degrees from the University of Minnesota in 1973 and 1974 and began his career as an integrated circuit process development and manufacturing engineer. He earned his PhD at Purdue in 1980 for research on interdigitated back contact silicon solar cells, which are currently the highest efficiency solar cells manufactured in the U.S. He has been on the Purdue faculty since 1980 where his research and teaching have focused on the physics, modeling, and simulation of semiconductor devices and is known best for his work on the scaling limits of MOSFETs, which supported the design and manufacturing of transistors at the 10 nanometer length scale. Beginning in 1995, before the term “cloud computing” entered the vocabulary. Lundstrom founded nanoHUB (https://nanohub.org/), which for the past 25 years has offered online access to sophisticated electronic device simulation tools. The nanoHUB was also one of the very first to offer open-content educational resources and now serves a global community of more than two million annually.

Among Lundstrom’s recognitions for his career contributions to microelectronics research and education are the Semiconductor Industry Association’s University Researcher Award, the Semiconductor Research Corporation’s Aristotle Award, the IEEE’s Cledo Brunetti Award, and the IEEE’s Leon K. Kirchmayer Graduate Teaching Award.
