Liang Boon Wee

Associate Professor (Engineering)

Singapore

Liang-Boon graduated from The National University of Singapore in 1986 with 1st class Honors degree in Electrical Engineering. He continued his research at NUS and completed his M.Eng degree in motion control and power electric drives in 1987. In 1989 he was awarded the Defense Technology Training Award to pursue his PhD studies in the field of Robotics at The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Liang-Boon started his career at DSO National Laboratories as a project engineer in 1987. He held various leadership position throughout his career in DSO and was holding the appointment of Chief Engineer before he joined Singapore Institute of Technology in 2019 as Associate Professor in the Engineering cluster. His technical expertise includes Navigation, Computer Vision, Smart Actuators and Control systems, and Systems of Systems Engineering. He served as a member of the Project Evaluation Panel (PEP) for EDB OSTin. He is also a senior member of the IEEE.
