Report summary

The 2015-2026 picture for Pennsylvania State University School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science is a 63-PI network with 52 internal PI collaborations. The main research signal is Engineering as the leading field (39% of slots across 44 PIs; 44 labels), Electrical and Electronic Engineering as the leading subfield (16% of slots across 23 PIs; 23 labels), and Ferroelectric and Piezoelectric Materials as the leading topic (3% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). This is a solid, readable collaboration map: group-level fit matters more than a single department-wide label. The leading PI names are Shashank Priya (74.4 weighted works; Perovskite Materials and Applications, Advanced Thermoelectric Materials and Devices); Douglas H. Werner (70 weighted works; Metamaterials and Metasurfaces Applications, Advanced Antenna and Metasurface Technologies). The clearest collaboration lines are Douglas H. Werner and Pingjuan L. Werner (101 shared works, weight 46.5). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 8 PIs, 7 internal connections, weight 67.3, around Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, led by Douglas H. Werner, Saptarshi Das, Aida Ebrahimi; group 2 with 8 PIs, 7 internal connections, weight 34.9, around Artificial Intelligence, Information Systems, Computer Networks and Communications, led by Mahmut Kandemir, Vijaykrishnan Narayanan, George Kesidis.
