Dr.-Ing. Dipl.-Math. Martin Mittelbach

Research associate

Biography

In May 2003 Martin Mittelbach received a diploma degree in Electrical Engineering with a major in Information Technologies from Dresden University of Technology. He studied for two semesters at the Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Virginia Tech in Blacksburg/U.S. Since June 2003 he is a research associate at the Chair of Communications Theory, Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Dresden University of Technology. In December 2012 Martin received a diploma degree in Mathematics with a major in Mathematical Stochastics from Dresden University of Technology. In Dezember 2014 he completed his dissertation at the Chair of Communications Theory, Dresden University of Technology and received the academic degree Doktor-Ingenieur. Since then he holds a post-doctoral and lecturer position there.
