T. Emilie van Deventer received the Diplome Universitaire de Technologie from the Institut Universitaire de Technologie of Marseille, France, and the B.S.E., M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan, USA. She worked in the acoustic field for Bruel & Kjaer from 1982 to 1983. From 1985 to 1992, she was a research assistant in the Radiation Laboratory at the University of Michigan. In August 1992, she joined the University of Toronto as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering where she holds the NSERC/Bell Canada/Nortel Junior Industrial Research Chair in Electromagnetics. Her research interests include the numerical modeling of microwave and millimeter-wave structures with application to EMC/EMI problems. Dr. van Deventer was awarded an URSI Young Scientist Fellowship in 1993.

Dr. van Deventer is the founder and current chairperson of the IEEE Joint Chapter on Electromagnetics and Radiation, including the Electromagnetic Compatibility, Antennas & Propagation, and Microwave Theory & Techniques Societies in the IEEE Toronto Section, and a member of Eta Kappa Nu and Tau Beta Pi. She chaired the Local Arrangements Committee for the General Assembly of the International Union of Radio Science, 13-21 August, 1999, held at the University of Toronto. She is a registered Professional Engineer in the Province of Ontario.
