Professor Douglas L. Irving is the Director of Graduate Programs, a University Faculty Scholar, and an Alumni Distinguished Undergraduate Professor. He received his Bachelor of Science in Physics from Furman University in 1997 and his Ph.D. in Materials Engineering from the University of Florida in 2004. He carried out postdoctoral research at North Carolina State University in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering before joining the faculty in 2008. He is on the Editorial Board of the Elsevier journal Computational Materials Science. Irving has received the National Science Foundation CAREER award, been recognized as an Outstanding Young Alumni from UF, and was named an NC State University Faculty Scholar. Irving is a decorated teacher winning the Outstanding Teaching Award and being named an Alumni Distinguished Undergraduate Professor. Irving’s research centers on predicting electrical and optical properties of wide bandgap semiconductors and dielectrics with applications in power electronics, light emitters, and quantum applications. His group utilizes first principles methods and has pioneered the development of point defeat informatics, point defect equilibrium simulation, and the use of AI tools in the inverse design of materials.
