Professor Soroush Faramehr is Chair of Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD) at Coventry University and a member of the Centre for E-Mobility & Clean Growth (CECG). His research focuses on the development of technologies that enable cleaner, more efficient and sustainable electrified transport and energy systems through close collaboration with industry, government and academic partners.

His research interests include power electronic converters, electric machines and drive systems, wide-bandgap semiconductor technologies, advanced sensing systems, and the characterisation and experimental validation of next-generation electrified propulsion systems. He has extensive experience in developing and validating hardware for automotive, aerospace, maritime and industrial electrification applications.

Professor Faramehr leads multidisciplinary research programmes funded through national and international collaborations, working with industrial partners to translate research into practical engineering solutions. His work spans the full innovation pathway, from concept development and system design through to prototype implementation, laboratory testing and technology validation.

Alongside his research, Professor Faramehr is committed to developing the next generation of engineers and researchers. He leads the PEMD Skills Theme within the Centre for E-Mobility & Clean Growth and is Course Director for the MSc in Power Electronics & Energy Systems. He supervises doctoral researchers, develops industry-focused education and professional training programmes, and works to strengthen the skills required to support the transition to net zero.
