Yongjie Li is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Macau. He obtained a Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (2010), after receiving a B.Sc. in Chemistry from Peking University (2004). He was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University from 2014 - 2015 before joining University of Macau. His research interests include air pollution measurements and atmospheric chemistry. He has been working on mass spectrometric techniques for real-time air pollution measurements and chemical reactions leading to secondary pollution formation. Dr. Li has published over 60 SCI journal articles on these topics. He teaches one undergraduate course, Environmental Engineering, and two postgraduate courses, Air Pollution Meteorology and Chemistry and Air Pollution Control. He was the recipient of the China Aerosol Young Scientist Award in 2019. Yongjie Li is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Macau.
