Adrian Bejan (24 September 1948, Galaţi, Romania) is an American professor and proponent of the constructal theory of design and evolution in nature. He is J. A. Jones Distinguished Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Duke University.

Bejan was appointed full professor with tenure at Duke University in 1984. He was awarded the J.A. Jones distinguished professorship in 1989.

Bejan has published 530 peer-reviewed articles and 24 books. He pioneered numerous original methods in science, such as the constructal law of design and evolution in nature, entropy generation minimization, scale analysis of convection, heatlines and masslines, transition to turbulence, and designed porous media.
