About Prof. Bogatin

Eric Bogatin is the Dean of the Signal Integrity Academy, Be The Signal, and an adjunct professor in the ECEE Department at the University of Colorado, Boulder.

He received his BS in Physics from MIT and PhD in Physics from the University of Arizona in Tucson. 

I was pickled in Star Trek juices and fermented with the spices of the NASA’s Mercury, Gemini and Apollo space missions when I was a kid. The pin-up poster on my wall was of Ed White in his first spacewalk. The simultaneous excitement of the fictional view of space travel in Star Trek and the engineering feats of the real space program caught me in its web and infused me with a love of science and engineering.

I went to MIT as an undergraduate in course VIII, physics, from 1972 to 1976. I studied experimental physics, black holes, relativity and astrophysics from the world’s experts.

I then went to the University of Arizona in Tucson and studied lasers, quantum optics and cosmology. My PhD dissertation was “Three New High Precision Tests a Relativity and Mach’s Principle.” It brought together my three loves: experimental physics, relativity and cosmology, interests that have never left me.
