Dr David Smith Dr David Smith I initially came to Brunel in 2004 as a research associate responsible for developing and testing imaging and spectroscopy detectors for use in space before being appointed as a lecturer in 2006. I currently work in the Sensors and Instrumentation Research Group carrying out radiation testing and characterisation of solid-state imaging and spectroscopy sensors and developing new dosimetry techniques for space and terrestrial applications. I have been involved with undergraduate and postgraduate teaching throughout my time at Brunel and I have developed and taught courses on different aspects of physics, sensors and instrumentation, computer programming and analogue electronics. The use and development of charge-coupled devices (CCDs) for space based instruments The development of photon detection systems for particle physics applications The radiation and particulate components of space weather and its many effects on the operation of imaging systems Radiation measurement techniques The design and development of public understanding of science literature and materials Current teaching: BE1610 – Engineering Systems and Energy I BE1611 – Engineering Systems and Energy II EE5566 / EE5656 – Advanced Analogue Electronics and Photonics EE5625 / EE5655 – Engineering Ethics and Sustainability EE5626 – AEEE Group Project Past teaching: BE1706 / BE1603 – Engineering Systems and Energy EE1624 – Electronics Principles EE1061 – Devices and Circuits EE1070 – Introduction to Programming in Java EE5609 / EE5651 – Analogue Integrated Circuit Design EE5617 – Applied Sensors Instrumentation and Control EE5618 – AEEE Group Project DM1313 – Creative Engineering Practice ME0005 – Foundations of Physics EE1068 / EE1085 – Electronic and Computer Engineering Workshops Level 1 Multi-Disciplinary Project (MDP) Coordinator University of Glasgow invited lecturer on the international Space Mission Analysis and Design MSc programme
