About Me

I am a faculty member in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I was also an undergraduate there, earning a BSE, MS, and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and completing the departmental requirements for a BSE in Electrical Engineering.


Name Pronunciation

The way my family pronounces it, "Michael Gustafson" sounds like "MY-kull GUST-of-sun." Like gust of wind. Without the wind. Apparently the IPA version is /ˈmaɪkəl ˈɡʌstʌvsʌn/. Not sure that helps, really...

Current Courses

For the Fall 2018 semester I am teaching the following course:

  • EGR 103: Computational Methods in Engineering

Projects

Lots. This whole site, for example... And:

TorusSpin.gif

Templates Started

None here as yet. Let me know if you have any suggestions for new templates or changes to the above on my Discussion page.

Among others, I posted the following articles to the Grand Challenges for Engineering page:

Signature

I borrowed / stole...well - it's all GFDL so, copied my signature (as of 8/5/06) from a user on Wikipedia with a handle of aeropagitica. Thank You! Here's the code, for the truly bored:
