Indiana Tech electrical engineering professor Zakariya Al Hamouz is ranked amongst the top 2% of most influential scientists in the world<\/a>, based on the report updated for 2023 by researchers at Stanford University.<\/p>\n

Professor Al Hamouz is the chair of Indiana Tech’s ABET-accredited electrical engineering program and has been with the university since 2019.<\/p>\n

The comprehensive ranking was released by Stanford in October, and it is based on bibliometric data from the expansive Scopus database, which is comprised of more than 210,000 scholars within a global pool of millions of active scientists. The assessment divides scientists into 20 distinct scientific fields and 174 sub-fields, systematically ranking them based on how often their work is cited by other scholars. Data is presented separately for both an academic\u2019s entire career and their one-year impact, offering a nuanced evaluation of scholarly impact.<\/p>\n

“Indiana Tech is very proud of Dr. Al Hamouz for receiving this prestigious worldwide honor,” said Dr. Ying Shang, dean of Indiana Tech’s Talwar College of Engineering and Computer Sciences. “It is a tremendous recognization for his research and his reputation.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-156409","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTech's Al Hamouz identified as one of the top 2% of influential scientists in the world -
