Dr. Samuel Okeolu Omogoye is a lecturer, researcher, and community developer in the field of electrical power engineering. He obtained his B.Tech in Electronic and Electrical Engineering from Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) in 2006, an M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering (Power Systems) from the University of Lagos in 2014, and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Cape Town in 2022. His doctoral research focused on power system operational and infrastructural planning, specifically enhancing power system resilience against high-impact, low-probability (HILP) events. As a community-oriented educator, Dr. Omogoye integrates these research insights into his teaching, emphasizing grid reliability, disaster-readiness, and modern control strategies in his power engineering courses. He also engages in community service projects to improve electricity access and stability in local communities. By combining a strong academic background with practical outreach, he is shaping power engineers who are technically skilled and socially conscious.
