From June 16 to July 30, 2010, Asst. Prof. Dr. Danai Torrungrueng was on sabbatical leave to carry out research on computational electromagnetics (CEM) with Prof. Joel T. Johnson at the ElectroScience Laboratory (ESL), The Ohio State University (OSU), in Columbus Ohio, USA, (http://electroscience.osu.edu/).

Dr. Danai writes about his experiences:
“The collaboration between Asian University and the OSU has been strengthened in terms of research and Asian University student recruitment with scholarships offered for graduate studies at the OSU. My sabbatical-leave period was very enjoyable and productive.”

From 11 – 17 July 2010, Dr. Danai, his colleagues and his students presented three conference papers at the 2010 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and CNC/USNC/URSI Radio Science Meeting (http://www.apsursi2010.org/) held at the Sheraton Centre Hotel in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. One of the papers was presented by Ms. Varittha Sanphuang, a 4th year Electrical and Electronic Engineering undergraduate student. These papers will be expanded to become journal papers for submission in the future. In addition, Dr. Danai also met engineering alumni, Dr. Noppasin Niumsuwan, Mr. Theeraputh Mekathikom and Mr. Eric Lerspreuks, at the Buddhist Temple of America in California prior to returning back to Thailand.
