How to apply?
Please email me your CV, undergraduate transcripts, papers, a succinct yet concrete (1-2 pages) research statement of what you'd like to pursue during your PhD, and any other documents that you believe can demonstrate your excellence.
If there is a good match after reading your email, I will let you know and encourage you to apply online through ECE or CS.
Tips for filling the ECE application: Apply for PhD instead of EngD; Choose ECE Dept; Area: Signal Analysis & Mach Intel-TRK; Source of Finance: NUS research scholarship or others if you have own source; select me me as proposed supervisor.

Some admission requirements made by the school: GPA>3.5 out of 4. TOEFL/IELTS/GRE.
Note that 1) if you are currently in Singapore, or 2) if you are okay with 3 years service obligation i.e. working at Singapore after graduation, say PostDoc in our lab or FTE at local companies, the admission bar could be slightly lower.
Master at NUS:
EE/CEG 5003? Please email your CV, transcript, etc to Difei (gaodifei AT nus.edu.sg) if you are interested in multimodal LLM and/or Weijia (weijiawu@u.nus.edu) for diffusion, and copy me (mikeshou AT nus.edu.sg). It would be helpful to let us know, for the topics, if you are open to both understanding and generation, or only interested in either one. Thanks.
