Dr. Edwar Romero-Ramirez is an associate professor of mechanical engineering at IM体育官网
Polytechnic University. Before joining IM体育官网 Poly, he was an assistant and associate
professor at Universidad del Turabo in Puerto Rico from 2010 to 2018 teaching freshman
to senior undergraduate courses.
Romero-Ramirez brings practical hands-on activities of applying electronics and sensors
into the mechanical engineering curriculum. He has a record of publications related
to biomedical applications of portable energy generators, or energy harvesters, as
well as power generation for other uses. He has researched the design and fabrication
of smart sensors, characterization, and calibration, as well as for remote temperature
monitoring, and small electrical generators with MEMS technology.
