Dr. Wei Gao at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) is seeking outstanding candidates to fill multiple PhD student positions starting from the Fall 2018 semester. Recruited PhD students will receive full financial support during their entire PhD studies.

Dr. Wei Gao is doing pioneering research in the design, analysis, and implementation of embedded and mobile computing systems, ranging from the existing smartphones, wearable devices and embed sensors to the emerging Virtual Reality and Internet of Things systems. His research work spans both the hardware and software aspects of these systems, and also utilizes multiple tools of data mining and deep learning that allow the embedded and mobile devices to precisely learn human behavior patterns and behave accordingly. His work, therefore, involves many collaborations with industry partners on commercial products and creates various opportunities for students’ internships and full-time jobs after graduation. He is a NSF CAREER Award winner, and has published more than 60 papers at top-tier conferences and journals. More details about Dr. Gao’s research can be found at: 3w dot pitt dot edu/~weigao.

Applicants of all relevant majors including Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Communication Engineering, etc, are encouraged to apply. Applicants with hands-on skills on building practical systems will be given prioritized consideration. Applicants with strong background in communication theory, signal processing, optimization theory and algorithm design will also be considered. Interested applicants are invited to send their CVs, transcripts and list of publications (if any) to Dr. Wei Gao (weiga at pitt.edu). The ECE Department at Pitt will start reviewing applicants in the beginning of January
