Peter Clarricoats

Peter John Bell Clarricoats CBE, FREng,[1] FRS[2] (6 April 1932 – 17 January 2020) was a British engineer, and was professor of electronic engineering at Queen Mary, University of London from 1968 to 1997.[3] Clarricoats had begun his academic career in 1959 as a lecturer at Queen’s University Belfast, followed by a move in 1961 to the University of Sheffield. He was appointed as a professor at the University of Leeds in 1963, which made him the youngest professor in his field at the time.[4] He received his PhD from the University of London in 1958, with a thesis entitled "Properties of waveguides containing ferrites with special reference to waveguides of circular cross-section".

He was vice-president of the Institution of Electrical Engineers, from 1989 to 1991.[5] He was vice-president and treasurer of URSI (the International Union of Radio Science) from 1993 to 1999.[6] He was appointed a Fellow[1] at the Royal Academy of Engineering[1] in 1983. From 1995 to 1997 he was a director of Filtronic plc,[7] and in 1998 became chair of the Technology Advisory board of Filtronic.[4] He was educated at Minchenden Grammar School and Imperial College London.[4]

In September 2015 Clarricoats was awarded the Sir Frank Whittle medal of the Royal Academy of Engineering, one of the academy's highest accolades.[8]
