Nicolas Moussiopoulos (in Greek Νικόλαος Μουσιόπουλος, born January 1, 1956 in Athens) is a Greek engineer and university professor at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His research interests are in the field of Environmental Engineering.
Curriculum Vitae
Born in Athens 1956, Nicolas Moussiopoulos studied Mechanical Engineering at the Universität Karlsruhe (now Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, KIT), where he also received his doctoral degree. After the completion of his postdoctoral lecture qualification (“Habilitation”) in 1988, he was appointed Full Professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering of the Aristotle University Thessaloniki. Since 1990 he is also the Head of this University’s Laboratory of Heat Transfer and Environmental Engineering. In addition, since 1996 he is a Honorary Professor at KIT’s School of Mechanical Engineering.
In the periods 1997-1999 and 2003-2007 Professor Moussiopoulos chaired Aristotle University’s School of Mechanical Engineering. From September 2006 until August 2010 he was the Dean of the University’s Faculty of Engineering. From October 2010 until March 2016 he served as the Vice President of the International Hellenic University and Dean of its School of Economics & Business Administration (until 2013). In the period 2014-2017 he was also the Head of the Energy Department, School of Mechanical Engineering of the Aristotle University Thessaloniki.
Professor Moussiopoulos has consulted several Greek Ministers, represented Greece in numerous international committees and has a wide research management experience. Since 2002 he is a member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina. In the same year he was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. In 2012 the Royal Society appointed him Associate Editor of Philosophical Transactions A, the world’s longest running scientific journal. Since 2015 Professor Moussiopoulos is the General Secretary of the Hellenic Chapter of the Club of Rome. He received several awards and prizes, among them the Gerhard Hess Award of the German Research Association, the Heinrich Hertz Award (1990) and Aristotle University’s Excellence Prize (2008).
The research work of Nicolas Moussiopoulos addresses several issues in the broad field of energy and the environment. In the last 30 years he participated in numerous competitive, mostly EU funded research projects with a total budget exceeding 20 million €. He supervised 42 PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers in Greece and five other countries and is the author of more than 800 scientific publications, including approx. 220 papers in peer-reviewed journals (3350 citations, h-index: 29).
