Ke Wu was born in Liyang, Jiangsu, China on 9 December 1962. He currently works as a professor of Electrical Engineering at the university Ecole Polytechnique[1][2] in Montreal, and is a Tier-I Canada Research Chair[3] in Radio-Frequency (RF) and Millimetre-Wave Engineering.

He is active in the following areas of research; Microwave and millimeter wave (components, devices, receiver / transmitter); Characterization and measurement of dielectric materials; Fast electronics (fast logic circuits, interconnects); Superconductors (circuits, applications); Numerical modeling (CAD, electromagnetic fields); Optoelectronics (photonics components, broadband transmission).[4]

Roles

Ke Wu has several roles being; the Director of the Poly-Grames Research Center[4]; the Founding Director of the Canadian university-industry consortium, Facility for Advanced Millimetre-wave Engineering (FAME) and the Center for Radiofrequency Electronics Research of Quebec (or Centre de recherche en électronique radiofréquence (CREER) – a strategic alliance of Québec). He also holds the first Cheung Kong endowed chair professorship (visiting) at the Southeast University and the first Sir Yue-Kong Pao chair professorship (visiting) at the Ningbo University, China.

Ke Wu was the general chair for the IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium 2012 which was organized by IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. This was the first time since 1978 that the conference moved outside the US territory. The conference had about 15,000 participants and over 1,000 exhibitors from around the world.

Wu was a former delegate to the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and served as an advisor to the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the Chinese Communist Party's United Front Work Department.[1]

Awards

Wu has received many awards and prizes, including a URSI Young Scientist Award, the Oliver Lodge Premium Award from the Institution of Electrical Engineers of London (IEE), the Asia-Pacific Microwave Prize, the Prix Poly 1873 pour l'Excellence en recherche – the Top University Research Award from the Ecole Polytechnique, and the Urgel-Archambault Prize in the field of Physical Sciences, Mathematics and Engineering of the French-Canadian Association for the Advancement of Science (ACFAS). He was elected an IEEE Fellow in 2001.[5]
