Profile

Hungyen began his academic life at University of Adelaide, Australia, where he graduated from a Computer Systems Engineering (1st Hons). After undertaking an industrial sponsored Masters by Research project (Schefenacker Vision Systems) at University of South Australia, he returned back to University of Adelaide to pursue a PhD in Electronic Engineering. There he realised terahertz time-domain spectrometers and built a terahertz microscope. During his PhD, he undertook research exchanges at Freiburg University and Osaka University funded by an Australian Prime Minister Asia Award. Following PhD, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate in Terahertz Applications Group, at University of Cambridge under Prof J. Axel Zeitler for a total of 2 years before taking up a lectureship at Lancaster University. He has previously worked as a software engineer in Fujitsu Siemens Computers and as a patent attorney in Australia.
