Requests from Current and Prospective Students

My professional focus has increasingly shifted from research toward teaching and academic administration. As a result, I am accepting very few new students for research supervision.

I receive many inquiries from prospective M.S. and Ph.D. students interested in networking research at Northeastern University. Unfortunately, I am unable to review every resume, transcript, or research statement in detail, or to respond individually to every request. For the same reason, I may not reply to unsolicited inquiries about research funding, visiting-student appointments, internships, or short-term research stays. I apologize for this, but the volume of messages makes individual responses impractical.

Admission to the M.S. and Ph.D. programs in Northeastern University's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is determined by a departmental admissions committee, not by individual faculty members. Some admitted students receive scholarships or other forms of financial support, but funding is not guaranteed, particularly for M.S. students.

If you are interested in networking as a research area, please apply through the department standard admissions process. If admitted, you may contact faculty members whose current research interests align with yours to discuss possible opportunities within their groups.

For admissions requirements, application procedures, and current faculty research areas, please visit the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering website.
