There are Ph.D. positions available for the Fall 2026 semester.
I am always looking for driven students who have a keen research passion in areas like computer architecture, FPGA acceleration, hardware security, machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT). If you’re excited about advancing any of these subjects alongside me, please:

Must have completed an MS/MEng degree in electrical engineering (EE), computer engineering (CE), or a related field with a minimum GPA of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale.
Please mention my name as your preferred advisor in your application materials, so your application materials can be easily found.
You are very welcome to reach out via email; please attach the following information:
Use ‘‘Apply-PhD-YourName-Semester-Year’’ as your email subject.
Please attach your CV, all transcripts, GRE score (Quantitative > 165) and IELTS or TOEFL score.
Please share your thoughts after reading at least one of my recent paper(s). I’m keen to know if any particularly interest you and why.
