Teemu Ovaska

My work as a university teacher includes both bachelor´s and master´s level courses in the field of electrical engineering and energy technology. I also have experience in both public and company research projects as a project researcher since 2014. In these projects, I have focused on exhaust emissions, alternative liquid fuels and exhaust aftertreatment systems by conducting experimental laboratory research on high- and medium-speed internal combustion engines. I also have experience in managing the work package of a research project in a consortium.
I have finished both my Master of Science (2013) and Doctoral of Science (2020) degrees in Energy Technology at the University of Vaasa. I have also completed teacher's pedagogical studies (2021).

Teaching interests:

- Introduction to engine laboratory research
