Biography

Dr. Fehmi Gorkem Uctug got his Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering from Middle East Technical University (Ankara-Turkey) in 2004 and his Ph.D. degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Manchester, School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Sciences in 2008. His Ph.D. study focused on the development and characterisation of novel membranes for direct methanol fuel cells. He had worked in Bahcesehir University (Istanbul-Turkey) Energy Systems Engineering Department as an assistant professor between 2010 and 2016, and was the vice-dean of Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences between 2013 and 2016. His fields of interest include energy-efficient buildings, electrochemical energy storage, life cycle analysis of energy systems, sustainability, and energy economics.
