Global University
Advance your EMC knowledge and career with in-depth classes on
EMC at the IEEE EMC Society’s premier educational event.
The first Global University took place at the 2007 International Symposium on EMC in Honolulu, Hawaii. Janet O’Neil, the symposium chair, was looking for events to help encourage people relatively new to EMC to come to the symposium. Dr. Clayton Paul proposed a series of courses taught by internationally recognized EMC instructors from around the world. Together, they organized an event they named “Global University” consisting of ten, two-hour courses that ran throughout the symposium week. The event proved to be very popular and has been a fixture at every EMC symposium since then.
In the early years, the name of the event changed from Global University to Global EMC University to Global EMC & SI University, as the topics and the nature of instruction evolved. However, in 2013 the IEEE EMC Society Education Committee determined that the membership was best served by Global University as it was originally envisioned and organized by Dr. Paul. The committee established strict standards for both the topics and instructors to ensure a high-quality educational experience. They also renamed the event “Clayton R. Paul Global University.”
The topics for this year’s Global University are those that have been proven to be valuable to participants in previous symposia. The event for this year will provide the attendees with a great learning experience, due to the ability for interaction between instructors and attendees, as well as providing networking among attendees.
This year’s Global University will truly be an event that honors Dr. Paul’s efforts and dedication to the EMC Society as well as maintains his high standards in providing EMC educational opportunities!
