FEAS professor receives UOIT Award of Excellence

On Tuesday, November 10, the university honoured staff and faculty members at its annual Awards of Excellence recognition event. This year, Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science's Dr. Sheldon Williamson was honoured with a Research Excellence Award 

His world-class research program focuses on advanced power electronics solutions for electric vehicle traction batteries, as well as plugged and wireless charging technologies. Dr. Williamson is one of Canada’s elite early career researchers in the area of electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and his expertise in energy storage systems and renewable energy systems is completely unique.

Although Dr. Williamson only joined UOIT in 2014, he has had a profound and positive impact on our community. We look forward to watching his career unfold as he continues to make contributions to the fields of electric vehicles and electric energy storage systems.
