• Prepared course materials such as lecture notes and homework assignments. • Lectured and conducted lab sessions in electrical engineering courses such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Power Electronics, and Logic Design.

• Performed a literature review about the problem of voltage fluctuation in distribution systems with high photovoltaic penetration levels.• Researched and applied an affinely adjustable robust counterpart (AARC) approach for the optimal local dispatch of reactive power from the PV inverters.• Developed the mathematical model of the problem at hand.• Programmed the model using MATLAB and solved the optimization problem using CPLEX.• Examined the developed local control on real distribution systems with high photovoltaic penetration levels and analyzed the results.• Wrote an IEEE paper about the research project.
