Zhengmao Li, Assistant Professor at the Department of Electrical Engineering, will visit Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) from 1 December, 2026 to 31 January, 2027. 

The visiting professorship programme, created through Unite!, aims to increase international mobility and collaboration in teaching and research. Li’s visit to TU Graz follows his time as a visiting professor at TU Darmstadt last year.

At TU Graz, Li will focus on developing links with the university’s hydrogen economy research community, while also deepening his knowledge of the field and expanding his professional network. He hopes the visit will lead to joint publications and collaborative research proposals.

“Alongside teaching, I will organise seminars to share Aalto’s research, build connections with TU Graz’s hydrogen economy community, and explore opportunities for joint publications, research projects, and future educational cooperation,” Li says.
