Due to the high volume of emails, I may not respond to generic inquiries that lack specific details or could be sent to any professor.
However, I am willing to reply if (1) I find your background particularly relevant; and (2) You follow the instructions below.
Ph.D. Students
I am always on the lookout for motivated Ph.D. students with strong research interests in security, machine learning, computer architecture, high-efficiency computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT). If you’re interested in exploring these fields with me, please:
First, apply to Ph.D. program in the ECE department (Computer Engineering or CE).
Second, mention my name as your as your preferred advisor in your application materials (e.g., in your statement of purpose) for easy identification.
Feel free to email me, but please ensure that:
Step-1, Your subject line reads Prospective PhD student of Semester/Year (e.g., Fall/25), as this will help prevent your email from being marked as spam.
Step-2, Share insights from at least one of my recent papers, noting which paper(s) interest you and why. Again, I may not respond to generic applications without such details.
Postdocs
We have postdoctoral openings available. If you’re interested in joining my research, please send your CV along with 1-2 of your representative papers.
MS Students at NEU
If you’d like to conduct research with me, a good approach is to (1) take my class or (2) read a couple of my recent papers and share your insights.
Undergraduate at NEU
If you’re interested in working with me, a great first step is to enroll in my course or review my recent papers and discuss your findings with me.
After reading and following the above instructions, please submit your application materials through this link with your application materials.
