Hubing named Michelin Endowed Chair at
CU-ICAR
Clemson University has named Todd H. Hubing, Ph.D.
to fill the Michelin Endowed Chair in Vehicular Electronic Systems
Integration at CU-ICAR (Clemson University International Center for
Automotive Research) in Greenville. He is the second of four endowed
chairs planned for the program, and his faculty appointment is in
Clemson’s department of electrical and computer engineering.
 Hubing
will focus his CU-ICAR research and teaching efforts on automotive
engineering, specifically the integration of vehicle electronic systems.
Systems integration is the increasingly complex interaction of electrical,
digital and mechanical technologies in automobiles and many other
manufacturing platforms. Hubing is currently a professor of electrical
and computer engineering at the University of Missouri-Rolla.
Hubing earned his undergraduate degree from the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology and a graduate degree from Purdue University. He completed
his doctorate at North Carolina State University in 1988. His research
focuses on automotive and aerospace electromagnetic compatibility,
computational electromagnetics and electronic device detection and
identification based on electromagnetic emissions.
A pioneer in automotive research in the Upstate, Michelin was one
of the first partners in CU-ICAR, funding an endowed chair and associated
laboratory in February 2004. Michelin will use the center for some
of its future automotive research, including electronics systems for
tires. This will complement its extensive R&D efforts at campuses
in Greenville, Duncan and Laurens, S.C. Headquartered in Greenville,
S.C., Michelin North America employs 23,330 people and operates 20
major production facilities in 16 locations.
