Prof. ALİ KARA

Ali Kara received his Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Hacettepe University, Ankara, in 2002. He was a research assistant/scholar at Polytechnic University (New York University, Brooklyn, NY) from 1999 to 2000, in an industry-sponsored project (Symbol Technologies/Motorola).

In 2000, he joined the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Atılım University, where he held various positions from lecturer to full professor. He was the Director of the Graduate School of Natural and Applied Sciences at Atılım University until 2021.

Dr. Kara has published extensively in journals, mostly with his graduate students, and has presented his research findings at relevant conferences. He has also led many research projects in the areas of electromagnetics, wireless communications, radar and electronic warfare systems, and engineering education.

In one project, he led a team of researchers from universities across Europe to develop a Virtual and Remote Laboratory (VRL) platform (ERRL-European Remote Radio Laboratory). This platform was unique at the time and was fully funded by the European Commission. Dr. Kara has five patents to his name.

His research interests lie in a broad range of areas, including wireless communications, electromagnetics, radar and electronic warfare, data-driven techniques in engineering, and engineering education. In recent years, he has focused on the use of artificial intelligence (ML/DL) to solve problems in these areas.
