Biography
Edward Wasige received the B.Sc(Eng) degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Nairobi, Kenya, in 1988, the M.Sc(Eng) degree in Microelectronic Systems and Telecommunications from the University of Liverpool, U.K., in 1990, and the Dr.-Ing. degree (with distinction) in Electrical Engineering from the University of Kassel, Germany, in 1999. His doctoral research involved the development of a Si-GaAs quasi-monolithic hybrid technology for microwave and millimeter-wave applications. In the periods 1990-93 and 1999-2001, he taught Electronics and Communications Engineering courses at Moi University, Eldoret, Kenya.

Dr Wasige was a UNESCO Postdoctoral Fellow at the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, from May 2001 to August 2002, before joining the University of Glasgow in September 2002. His current research interests include the reliable design of resonant tunneling diode microwave and millimeter-wave oscillators, development of an indium phosphide based heterojunction bipolar transistor technology for terahertz electronics, and development of new types of gallium nitride-based heterojunction field effect transistors for power electronics and high power microwave applications.
