这么牛的人怎么就不愿意回国培养人呐？大大地纳闷，郑钧,David K. Cheng

David K. Cheng obtained his B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from National Chiao Tung University in Shanghai in 1938, and his S.M. and Sc.D. degrees from Harvard University in 1944 and 1946 respectively. While at Harvard, he was a Charles Storrow Scholar and a Gordon McKay Scholar.

Dr. Cheng was associated with the U.S.A.F. Cambridge Research Laboratories for 1946-48. In 1948 he joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering faculty of Syracuse University, where he remained until his retirement as a Centennial Professor Emeritus in 1984. During his years with Syracuse University, Dr. Cheng held many positions, which included the faculty chairmanship of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as well as that of the College of Engineering. He established the University's graduate center and served as its first academic chairman at Griffiss Air Force Base, Rome, NY (1952-53), at IBM in Endicott, NY (1953-54), and at IBM in Poughkeepsie, NY (1954-55). He was honored by Syracuse University as a Centennial Professor in 1970, and with the Chancellor's Citation for exceptional academic achievement in 1981.

Dr. Cheng has published four books: Analysis of Linear Systems (1959, translated into Chinese; Indian Student Edition, 1988), Field and Wave Electromagnetics (1st. ed. 1983, translated into Chinese; 2nd. ed. 1989), and Fundamentals of Engineering Electromagneics (1993, translated into Spanish and Korean). He has authored or co-authored more than 200 journal articles as well as numerous reports. He has won several best paper awards, an annual research award of the Society of Sigma Xi, an Achievement Award of the Chinese Institute of Engineers, and a Distinguished Service Award of the Phi Tau Phi Scholastic Honor Society. He is a Life Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), a Fellow and Chartered Engineer of the British Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE), and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is a member of the New York Academy of Sciences, Sigma Xi, and Eta Kappa Nu (Electrical Engineering Honorary).

In 1960-61 Dr. Cheng was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship to study and conduct research in London and Munich. He was selected by the National Academy of Sciences as an Exchange Scientist to Hungary in 1972, to Yugoslavia in 1974, and to Poland and Romania in 1978. For the 1975-76 year he served as a Liaison Scientist at the London Branch of the Office of Naval Research. The IEEE Antenna and Propagation Society appointed him as the European Lecturer under the Distinguished Lecturer Program for the same period.

Dr. Cheng was a member of the IEEE Publications Board for 1968-70. He was the Consulting Editor of an Electrical Engineering Monograph Series for Intext Educational Publishers, and from 1961 to 1978 was a Consulting Editor for Electrical Science books published by Addison-Wesley Publishing Company. He was a consultant for GE, IBM, TRW, and Syracuse Research Corporation.

Dr. Cheng is an Honorary Professor of the Northwest Institute of Telecommunication Engineering, the Beijing University of Posts and Telecomunications, and the Shanghai Jao Tong University (SJTU). He was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Engineering degree by the Chiao Tung University in Taiwan in 1985 and an Honorary Doctor's degree by the Xidian University in Xi'an, China in 1998. He is listed in a number of biographical references, including Who's Who in America, Who's Who in American Education, Who's Who in Science and Engineering, Who's Who in Electromagnetics, Dictionary of International Biography (U.K.), and Who's Who Among Asian Americans.

In 1996, the centennial year of SJTU, Dr. Cheng established and funded an Award for Teaching and Research Excellence at the School of Electronics and Information Technology. Every year a selection committee is chosen to select one exceptional teacher, one outstanding research professor, and three outstanding graduate students for the awards.
