Grzegorz Masłowski received the M.S. degree in
electrical engineering from the Rzeszow University of Technology, Poland, and
the Ph.D. degree from the University of Mining and Metallurgy in Krakow,
Poland, in 1991 and 1999, respectively.
Since 1991,
he has been with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Fundamentals at the Rzeszow University of Technology, Poland and since 2011 he
is an Associate Professor. He was visiting researcher at the University of
Bologna and at the University of Florida, Gainesville.
His research
interests concern lightning physics and modeling, lightning protection, and
electromagnetic compatibility. He is the author or coauthor of over 100
scientific papers published in peer-reviewed journals and conference
proceedings.
He served as
the Chairman of the Polish Committee on Lightning Protection (PCLP) at the
Association of Polish Electrical Engineers (SEP) from 2012 to 2018, the
Chairman of the Polish Section IEEE EMC-027 from 2014 to 2018, the Chairman of
the 34th International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP'2018), and
then, the Managing Guest Editor of the ICLP'2018 Special Issue of the Electric
Power Systems Reserach (EPSR) titled Advances in
Lightning Research and Protection Technologies.
At the
Rzeszów University of Technology he served as the Deputy Dean (2008-2012) and
the Dean (2012-2016) of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer
Engineering, and then the Deputy Rector (2016-2020) for Education.
He has
received numerous awards including the 2013 Distinguished Reviewer of the IEEE
Transaction on Electromagnetic Compatibility, the 2013 Silver SEP Honorary
Award, the 2015 Professor Mieczysław Pożaryski SEP Medal for outstanding achievements in the
field of science and teaching, the 2015 National Education Commission Medal,
the 2018 Gold Cross of Merit awarded by the President of the Republic of Poland
for activities for the development of science, the 2018 Michał
Doliwo-Dobrowolski SEP Medal in recognition of
outstanding merits in the development of electrical engineering.
Dr. Grzegorz
Masłowski is presently the head of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Fundamentals and within this department, he heads the Lightning Research Group.
The Lightning Group conducts scientific activity in the field of lightning
modeling and in the area of experimental research carried out in the Lightning
Observatory, the Avionics Lightning Surge Protection Laboratory, and the High
Voltage Laboratory.
He is a member of the Polish Committee on Lightning
Protection, the Polish Society of Theoretical and Applied Electrical
Engineering, the KT-55 Technical Committee for Electrical Installations and
Lightning Protection of Buildings operating within the Polish Committee for
Standardization (PKN), the American Geophysical Union (AGU), and the Senior
Member of IEEE. He was also involved in the work of the international standardization
committees related to the lightning protection, IEC TC81 and CENELEC TC 81X,
and the scientific committees and boards of reviewers of several international
conferences. He was also a member of the Working Group 2 of the European COST
Action P18: The Physics of Lightning Flash and Its Effects from 2005 to 2009.
