fitch h. beach nominees


John Verboncoeur is the Associate Dean for Re-

search and Graduate Studies in the Michigan State

University College of Engineering, and a professor

of Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Com-

putational Mathematics, Science and Engineering.

He leads MSU’s Plasma Theory and Simulation Group. His research interests include

theoretical and computational plasma physics, with a broad range of applications

spanning from low-temperature plasmas for lighting, thrusters, and materials

processing to hot plasmas for fusion, from low-current particle accelerators to

intense-current microwave sources.

He oversees a growing research enterprise among the College of Engineering’s

230 faculty members, up from 167 when he became associate dean 4½ years

ago. The college’s annual research expenditures doubled in less than a decade to

almost $60 million.

He joined MSU as a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engi-

neering in 2011, a er serving for 15 years as a faculty member in the Department

of Nuclear Engineering at the University of California–Berkeley. He chaired the

Computational Engineering Science program at Berkeley from 2001–2010.

Verboncoeur has more than 30 years experience developing and applying kinetic

particle simulation tools. He has over 100 journal publications in computational

plasmas and applications, in addition to more than 300 conference publications,

and fi ve book chapters.

Guest Speaker


He is a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and is past

president of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Science Society, and a Director of the

IEEE. He also serves on the Board of Directors of the American Center for Mobility

national proving ground near Detroit. He received the Richard F. Shea Distinguished

Member Award in 2018, and the Plasma Science and Applications Committee Award

in 2019, both from IEEE’s Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society. Only one of each

award is presented internationally each year.

He pioneered several key technologies in the area, including the fi rst self-consistent

model for plasmas bounded by electrodes connected to real driving circuits, the fi rst

interactive graphical user interface, and the fi rst object-oriented plasma model.

His group also developed the fi rst time-dependent explanation of the transition of

multipactor breakdown to gaseous discharge, as well as a novel kinetic global model.

His work has been cited over 4,000 times in a relatively small research community,

indicating a high impact.

He has been involved in a number of technology startup companies, including

development of one of the big three consumer credit reports, worked on the

hardware and so ware of the US Postal Service Mail Forwarding System, developed

executive decision support so ware systems in the defense sector, computerized

fi tness equipment, and a pioneering cloud-based health-care management system.

Verboncoeur received a bachelor’s degree with high honors in engineering science

at the University of Florida. He received a Magnetic Fusion Energy Technology

Fellowship from the U.S. Department of Energy to attend the University of California

at Berkeley, where he earned the MS and PhD degrees in nuclear engineering.
