Prof Carlos Salema was awarded the title of ''Professor Emeritus'' by the Technical University of Lisbon in recognition of the excellence of his teaching and contributions to Engineering as professor of Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (DEEC), for almost 40 years. He joined IST in 1965, obtained the PhD in 1972 from the Queen Mary College of London University and was elevated to Full Professor of DEEC/IST in 1979.

His academic, scientific and professional accomplishments though, largely extend beyond IST, with marked contributions to the national scientific community and constant engagement in technical and scientific activities with society outreach. He is the president of the Board of Directors of Instituto de Telecomunicações, President of the Academia de Engenharia and member of the Academia das Ciências de Lisboa.
