The Department of Electrical Engineering is pleased to welcome Professor Sarath Perera as a Senior Consultant until August 2025.
Prof. Perera is a distinguished alumnus of the University of Moratuwa, having earned his BSc (Eng) with a specialization in Power Systems. He went on to complete his MEngSc at the University of New South Wales and his PhD at the University of Wollongong, Australia.
Since 1988, he has been a valued member of the academic staff at the University of Wollongong. His research interests lie broadly in the field of power quality, and he has made significant contributions through both academic and industrial engagements. He previously served as the Technical Director of the Australian Power Quality and Reliability Centre (APQRC) and currently holds the title of Honorary Professor in the Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences at the University of Wollongong, while continuing as a member of APQRC.
We are honoured to have Prof. Perera back at his alma mater and look forward to the expertise and insight he will bring to the department during his time with us.
