The role of Electromagnetic (EM) fields in our lives has been increasing. In areas where EM fields have critical importance are communication, remote sensing, integrated command/ control/surveillance systems, intelligent transportation systems, medicine, environment, education, marketing, and defense. We have witnessed the transformation from Engineering Electromagnetics to Electromagnetic Engineering for the last few decades after being surrounded by EM waves everywhere. Among many others, EM engineering deals with a broad range of problems from antenna design to EM scattering, indoor–outdoor radio wave propagation to wireless communication, radar systems to integrated surveillance, subsurface imaging to novel materials, EM compatibility to nano-systems, electroacoustic devices to electro-optical systems, etc. The range of the devices we use in our daily lives has extended from DC to Terahertz frequencies. We have had large-scale (kilometers-wide) and small-scale (nanometers) EM systems. Many of these systems are broadband and digital and must operate nearby, which results in severe EM interference problems. Engineers must take EM issues into account from the earliest possible design stages. This necessitates establishing an intelligent balance between a strong mathematical background (theory), engineering experience (practice), and modeling and numerical computations (simulation). This Distinguished/keynote lecture aims to look broadly at current complex EM problems and particular teaching/training challenges confronting wave-oriented EM engineering in the 21st century in a complex computer and technology-driven world with rapidly shifting societal and technical priorities.
