Stevan S. Dubljevic is an Associate Professor at the Chemical and Materials Engineering Department at the University of Alberta. He received his Ph.D. in 2005 from the Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science at University of California in Los Angeles(UCLA), M.S. degree (2001) from the Texas A&M University (Texas), and the B.Sc. degree (1997) from the Belgrade University (Serbia). He held independent post-doctoral researcher position at the Cardiology Division of the UCLA's David Geen School of Medicine (2006-2009). He is the recipient of the American Heart Association (AHA) Western States Aliate Post-doctoral Grant Award (2007-2009) and the recipient of the O. Hugo Schuck Award for Applications, from American Automatic Control Council (AACC) 2007.

His research interests include systems engineering, with the emphasis on model predictive control of distributed parameter systems, dynamics and optimization of materials manufacturing (crystal growth) and chemical process operations, computational modelling and sim- ulation of biological systems (cardiac electrophysiological systems) and biomedical engineering. He is the reviewer for the IEEE Transaction on Automatic Control, IEEE Transaction on Control Systems Technology, Automatica, Industrial & Engineering Chemical Research, International Journalof System Science, American Control Conference, Conference on Decision and Control.
