Biography

My interests are in applied Antenna and RF/EM Engineering. In research, I address electronic sustainability challenges through the combination of "RF-enabled" technologies and materials. I am also passionate about RF engineering education and research communication, for attracting more students to bridge the skills gap in the RF industry

Mahmoud received his EEE BEng (1st Class Hons.) in September 2018, and his award-winning PhD in Rectenna Design (submitted in 26 months) in April 2021, from the University of Southampton.

Dr. Wagih joined the University of Glasgow in June 2022 as a Lecturer (Ass't.Professor equivalent), leading research on Green RF-enabled electronics, where he held a UK IC Research Fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering. He currently Co-Directs the UKRI Responsible Electronics and Circular Technologies (REACT) Centre; he is also a member of the Centre for Advanced Electronics (CAE) Management Team and a theme co-lead for Antennas & Wireless RF Systems.

He is the Founder of RX WaTT Limited, a spin-out dedicated to Joint Wireless Power and Data Transfer and RF Sensing. He has been PI/Co-I on over £16M of research projects and published 120+ papers. Active in public engagement and outreach, with several award-winning presentations.
