Mournir Laroussi Headshot

Dr. Mounir Laroussi joined the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of Old Dominion University in 2002 as an associate professor and achieved the rank of professor in 2008. He served as the director of the ODU Laser and Plasma Engineering Institute from 2007 to 2014, and as the director of ODU’s Plasma Engineering and Medicine Institute from 2014 to May, 2024. He was the recipient of the ECE Department’s Excellence in Teaching Award in 2006 and 2014. He was the recipient of the Batten College of Engineering and Technology Excellence in Research Award in 2005 and the recipient of ODU’s Research Achievement Award in 2009. In addition, Dr. Laroussi was the recipient of several prestigious award on the national and international stage in the field of low temperature plasma physics and its biomedical applications, a field where he is recognized as a pioneer and a leading authority.

Dr. Laroussi published more than 200 papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings. He has consistently been ranked in the top 2% of researchers in the world. He authored and co-edited a total of 4 books and contributed 8 chapters to other books. He is a fellow of the IEEE, APS, and IPCS. He served as chair of various conferences and still serves on editorial boards of several scientific journals.

John Sokolowski received a BS in Computer Science from Purdue University, a Master’s in Engineering Management, and a Ph.D. in Modeling and Simulation from Old Dominion University. After a career in the U. S. Navy spanning 27 years, he joined Old Dominion in 2001 as a senior research scientist under the ODU Research Foundation. In 2004 Sokolowski transitioned to ODU and became Chief Scientist for ODU’s Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC). He was selected as VMASC’s Executive Director and awarded the faculty rank of Associate Professor in 2010. He was awarded tenure on the Department of Computational Modeling and Simulation (CMSE) in 2016. In 2017, Sokolowski stepped down from his Executive Director role at VMASC and transitioned to teaching in the CMSE department.

Sokolowski has served as the major professor for 12 master’s and doctoral students at Old Dominion University. He also served as a co-advisor for an additional 18 master’s and doctoral students. He has served on ODU’s Faculty Senate since 2010 and was Chair of the Senate from 2019 to 2022. Sokolowski is personally responsible for over $8M of research funding spanning his time at VMASC. As VMASC’s Executive Director he diversified the Center’s research portfolio beyond that of the Department of Defense into several areas, including cyber security.

Sokolowski’s research concerns the computational representation of human behavior in computer simulation. He has published four books in modeling and simulation and served as author or coauthor on 16 journal articles and 46 conference papers. He has also served as President and Chairman of the board for the Society for Modeling and Simulation International.
