Professor Dr. Hakan CALISKAN is the youngest Professor of Mechanical Engineering in Turkey. He received all of his BSc, MSc, and PhD degrees with “first class honor” in the Department of Mechanical Engineering (Thermodynamics) at Pamukkale, Eskisehir Osmangazi, and Ege Universities in Turkey, respectively. He is also in the top 2% scientists of the world list (https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/3).

He worked as a Professor in Department of Mechanical Engineering of Kyung Hee University in Republic of Korea (among the top 500 universities in the world), as a Professor in the Teikyo University in Japan, and as a Researcher in University of Ontario Institute of Technology (Ontario Tech University) in Canada. He has more than 100 publications (based on thermodynamics/ energy/ exergy/ environment/ thermoeconomy/ sustainability/ etc). He is an Assistant Editor/Guest Editor/Editorial Board member of 16 international journals. He is an editorial board member in eleven different international journals, and an active reviewer in more than 30 high qualities (SCI/SCIE/SSCI indexed) international journals.
