Group Admissions

UBC Under-Graduate Students

I welcome inquiries from prospective research interns. If browsing my website and papers sparks your curiosity, and you have a strong background in coding and/or mathematics, please consider reaching out.

To apply, please share your CV and transcripts. The best way to understand my work style and interests is by taking one of my courses (see the Teaching section). Additionally, I highly recommend completing a basic machine learning course before joining the group.

Graduate Students

I welcome MASc/Ph.D. applications from students with a strong background in mathematics and interests in deep-learning, machine learning theory, high-dimensional statistics, and optimization. I suggest you read some of my research papers to see whether the topics fit your background and interests.

My group is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion and I encourage all interested students to apply or contact me with any questions.

Unfortunately, I am not able to respond to all the emails from applicants. I apologize in advance for that and I still make an effort to read all of them. Thank you for reaching out showing your interest.
