To Prospective Graduate Students
- Teaching Assistantship (TA) positions are granted by the department. Please contact the department for details.
- Research Assistantship (RA) * Open Ph.D. positions *
Exceptional graduate students are currently being considered for RA positions in the area of reliability engineering and dependable computing. Ph.D. students are preferred. I tend NOT to accept MS students unless the MS student is highly motivated, innovative, responsible, and committed to doing research. Students with background in computer engineering, computer science (formal methods, software engineering), electrical engineering, system engineering, industrial engineering, mathematics (probability theory) are welcome to apply. For more details about the positions, see PDF
Exceptional undergraduate students (with strong programming skills in Java) are also welcome to contact me.
