Dr. Mark A. Clements received the S.B. degree in 1976, the S.M. degree in 1978, the electrical engineering degree in 1979 and the Sc.D. degree in 1982, all in electrical engineering and computer science from Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
During his graduate work, he received a National Institutes of Health fellowship. His Sc.D. thesis was concerned with sensory aids for the hearing impaired. While pursuing his Sc.D., he also worked in the development of real-time automatic speech recognition systems.
Dr. Clements is a member of the Acoustical Society of America and is a Fellow of the IEEE. He has been a member of the IEEE Speech Technical Committee, and has served as an Editor for IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing. He also has been on the Board of Governors for the IEEE Signal Processing Society.
Dr. Clements retired in November 2017 after a 35-year career at Georgia Tech and now holds the title of Professor Emeritus.
