Recent UW ECE graduate Vikram Iyer has been recognized by ACM SIGMOBILE for his creative and inspiring work building bio-inspired networking and sensing systems.
The three-course graduate-level program will launch this upcoming autumn quarter, with students learning the theory, practical hands-on skills and “black art” techniques required to develop optimized parallel GPU software.
Beginning this summer and extending through winter quarter next year, UW ECE is welcoming seven new faculty members who bring a wealth of expertise in a wide range of technical areas and fields of study.
UW ECE alumna Laila Abudahi (MSEE ‘16) is using her education and career experience to connect young engineers in Palestine and the Arab region with high-paying jobs in the tech sector.
At the new AI Institute in Dynamic Systems, UW ECE and Applied Mathematics Professor Jose Nathan Kutz is part of a multidisciplinary UW research team at the forefront of artificial intelligence, machine learning and engineering education.
First-year doctoral student Liban Hussein, who works in the lab of UW ECE Assistant Professor Sajjad Moazeni, was recently awarded an opportunity to take part in the prestigious National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP).
