Profile

Professor Yang Hao received the Ph.D. degree from the Centre for Communications Research (CCR) at the University of Bristol, U.K. in 1998. From 1998 to 2000, he was a postdoc research fellow at the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Birmingham, U.K. In May 2000, he joined the Antenna and Electromagnetics Group, Queen Mary, University of London, London, U.K. first as a lecturer and was promoted to Reader in 2005 and to Professor in 2007. Since 2018, he also serves as the Dean for Research at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, Queen Mary, University of London.
Professor Hao was the PI and the director of a £4.6M EPSRC QUEST programme grant on transformation electromagnetics and microwave metamaterials. Since 2013, he is also a management board member of Cambridge Graphene Center, which has attracted over £25M funding from UK EPSRC and EU Graphene Flagship.
From 2018, he serves as an Adcom member and the publication committee chair for IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society. Prof. Hao was also an Editor-in-Chief for the IEEE ANTENNAS AND WIRELESS PROPAGATION LETTERS during 2014 and 2017. He recently founded a new open access journal for metamaterial research and he is now an editor-in-chief for EPJ Applied Metamaterials. He was an Associate Editor for the IEEE ANTENNAS AND WIRELESS PROPAGATION LETTERS, IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION during 2008-2013, and also a Co-Guest Editor for the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION in 2009.
He was elected as a Fellow of the ERA Foundation in 2007, Fellow of the IET in 2010, Fellow of the IEEE in 2013 and Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering. He is a holder of the Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award between 2013 and 2018. He also won the IET AF Harvey Research Prize in 2015 and was a co-recipient of the BAE Chairman's Silver Award in 2014.
