Gilbert 'Gil' Masters is a professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering (emeritus) at Stanford University. Though he officially retired in 2002, he continues to teach two classes at the university.〔http://www-ce.stanford.edu/faculty/masters/〕 He is the author of six books, including the leading environmental science textbook Introduction to Environmental Engineering and Science (Prentice Hall), now in its third edition. He also recently published Renewable and Efficient Electric Power Systems (Wiley) and Energy for Sustainability: Technology, Planning, Policy (Island Press). Within the broad field of environmental engineering, Gil Masters specializes in the interrelationships between environmental quality and energy consumption. His main focus is on the design and evaluation of renewable energy systems and energy efficient buildings, including photovoltaics, wind turbines, distributed generation, combined heat-and-power systems, fuel cells, passive solar design, and solar-thermal technologies. Masters taught environmental courses at Stanford since the mid-1970s, including CE170, Man and the Environment. Masters earned a number of teaching awards at Stanford, including the Gores Award for Excellence in Teaching, and the Tau Beta Pi teaching award from the School of Engineering. == Education == Masters graduated from the University of California Los Angeles in 1961 with an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering and earned his masters in the same field a year later. As a graduate student at Stanford, he completed his thesis in electrical engineering in four years, titled "Threshold logic synthesis of sequential machines," in 1966.〔http://jenson.stanford.edu/uhtbin/cgisirsi/mFf7IcVFMB/GREEN/23780014/9〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gil Masters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
