Mitsuru Igarashi (S'72-M'76) received the B. E. degree in electrical engineering from Yokohama National University, Yokohama, Japan in 1969, and the M. E. and Dr. Eng. degrees in electronic engineering from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo, Japan, in 1972 and 1975, respectively.From 1975 to 1979, he was an associate professor with National Oyama Technical College, Oyama, Japan. Since 1979 he has been with The School of Marine Science and Technology, Tokai University, Shimizu, Japan, where he is a Professor and Chairperson of the Department of Ocean Engineering. His research has been concerned with microwave nonreciprocal circuits, tensor permeability of partially magnetized magnetic materials, propagation waves of magnetized ferrites, active microwave sensors, and analysis of chum salmon scale patterns.
Dr. Igarashi is a member of the Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers of Japan.
