PhD student Alan G. Li was awarded the Belgian American Educational Foundation Fellowship for the academic year 2022-23.

Each year the Belgian American Educational Foundation (BAEF) awards up to 11 American students or researchers a fellowship for advanced study in Belgium. The Belgian American Educational Foundation Inc. is the leading independent philanthropy fostering higher education of deserving Belgians and Americans through its exchange Fellowship program.

Alan G. Li is currently a third year PhD student under the supervision of Prof. Matthias Preindl in the Motor Drives and Power Electronics Laboratory (MPlab).

"I'm excited to study in Belgium and so grateful to Prof. Preindl and Prof. West for all their help," Alan said.

He plans to use the fellowship to continue his research in battery management at a leading Belgian university.

“This is a fantastic opportunity for us to create and strengthen international relations in the general areas of battery degradation and microgrid,” Prof. Preindl said.
