Resume of Career
Stelios Ioannou received a Higher National Diploma (HND) in the field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering from
Higher Technical Institute, Nicosia, Cyprus, a BSEE, and MSEE with a Minor in
Engineering Management from University of South Florida (USF). As a PhD student
for the Clean Energy Research Center (CERC) at USF, he is involved in improving
endurance on Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned Vertical Take-off and
Landing (VTOL) vehicles. Specializations include power and energy demand of UGVs,
prediction of available onboard energy, battery characterization and state of
art energy storage devices including lithium, fuel cell and super-capacitor
technologies. Other research interests include failure analysis of electronic
components via a High Current Impulse Generator.
