Lawrence J. Ziomek (SM'92) was born in Chicago, IL, on August 8, 1949. He received the B.E. degree in electrical engineering from Villanova University, Villanova, PA, in 1971, the M.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Rhode Island, Kingston, RI, in 1974, and the Ph.D. degree in acoustics from the Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, in 1981.From November 1973 to May 1976 he was a member of the Technical Staff at TRW Systems Group, Redondo Beach, CA, and from September 1976 to April 1982 he was a Research Assistant in the Department of Ocean Technology, Applied Research Laboratory, Pennsylvania State University, State College, PA. Since May 1982 he has been with the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA, where he is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. His research interests are in underwater acoustics, specifically in theoretical and numerical modeling of pulse propagation and scattering in random media. He is the author of the textbook, Underwater Acoustics-A Linear Systems Theory Approach (Orlando, FL: Academic, 1985). He also contributed an invited paper entitled, "Underwater Acoustics" to The Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology, R. A. Meyers, Editor-in-Chief (Orlando, FL: Academic, 1987).
Dr. Ziomek is a member of the Acoustical Society of America, Eta Kappa Nu, Tau Beta Pi, Sigma Xi, and Phi Kappa Phi.
