Dušan Sernec (8 July 1882 – 15 February 1952) was a Slovene electrical engineer, academic, and politician. During the interwar period he served as a minister in the government of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and as Ban (governor) of the Drava Banovina, the administrative province that largely corresponded to modern-day Slovenia. During the Second World War he joined the Yugoslav resistance movement, and in 1945 he became one of the members of the Regency Council representing King Peter II of Yugoslavia in the provisional government that preceded the establishment of socialist Yugoslavia.
