Recent News
Our team member, Mr. Saleh Alkhalifah, a senior undergraduate student, has won the IEEE Antenna and Propagation Society Undergraduate Summer Research Scholarship (3,000 USD). This award is due to his research on "Nondestructive Microwave-Based Sensing and Characterization of Materials and Fluids". Few students around the globe may win this award.
We have received acceptance for four papers in high-quality journals, namely IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology - Advanced Electronic Materials (I.F. = 7.3) - IEEE Internet of Things Journal (I.F.= 11.7) - IEEE Sensors Journal, (I.F.= 3.3)
I am looking for motivated MsC/PhD students and postdoctoral researchers. Research grants are available to support new projects.
For prospective MsC/PhD students, if you satisfy the requirements in (Link), please email me your CV and official transcripts (BsC/MsC) if you are interested in my research topics.
Prospective students, please check here for the admission requirements and deadlines for application at KFUPM graduate studies.
