American electrical engineer and academic
Leung Tsang is an American electrical engineer, who is a professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. He is best known for his contributions to the theory and computation of wave scattering, rough surface scattering and microwave remote sensing.
Biography.
Leung Tsang was born and grew up in British Hong Kong. Completing high school education at Wah Yan College, he received S.B., S.M., and Ph.D. degrees all from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. During his doctoral studies, he was advised by Jin Au Kong.
From 1981 and 1983, he was with the Department of Electrical Engineering at Texas A&amp;M University, where he became an assistant professor. From 1983 to 2014, he was a professor of Electrical Engineering at University of Washington, where he acted as a department chair from 2006 to 2011. In January 2015, he joined University of Michigan as a professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
Tsang is a fellow member of IEEE and Optica. He was the president of IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society from 2006 to 2007; previously, he served as the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, sponsored by the same society. In 2020, he was elected to the National Academy of Engineering for "contributions in wave scattering and microwave remote sensing theories for satellite missions."
