John E. Mitchell is a Professor of Communications Systems Engineering in the UCL Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering and Co-Director of the Centre for Engineering Education in the UCL Faculty of Engineering Sciences. His research is focused on optical and wireless access systems, considering optical fibre access, millimeter-wave radio access, as well as systems that combine these two areas, specifically to support mobile front/back haul systems. This work has been funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the European Union (FP7, Marie-Curie), the UK Technology Strategy Board (TSB) and industry (including BT and SELEX ES). Between 2012 and 2016 he led the introduction of the Integrated Engineering Programme, a major revision of the curriculum across the engineering faculty. He has published widely on curriculum development, active learning and issues of diversity within engineering education as well as in optical and wireless access systems including work on optical fibre access, millimeter-wave radio access and radio-over-fibre technologies to support mobile front/back haul systems.
