Dr. Ilke Celik is an Assistant Professor in the Mechanical and Materials Engineering Department at the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science at Portland State University.
Her research interests are developing sustainability concepts for infrastructure systems and consist of computational and experimental works. More recently, she has focused on developing sustainable energy storage systems integrated with emerging redox battery systems and assessing their sustainability trade-offs. Also, Celik has been generating ideas on incorporating transparent PV technologies with urban agricultural systems to promote nature-inspired solar panels to decentralize city energy production and food supply.
Dr. Celik earned a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of Toledo, Ohio (USA). She completed a Master of Science and Bachelor of Science in Environmental and Chemical Engineering Departments at METU, in Ankara, Turkey. Before joining Portland State University, Dr. Celik taught at the University of Wisconsin – Platteville (2018-2020) and the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology (2020-2023).
