I lead the DICE (Data, Intelligence, and Computation in Engineering) Lab at NYU Tandon.

Open positions

We will be looking to recruit 1 or 2 highly qualified PhD students to NYU Tandon’s CSE and ECE departments in the 2025-2026 application cycle. Interested applicants can find more information here. I especially welcome first generation applicants (i.e., students who are the first in their families to consider doing a PhD).

Note (May 2025): I am on sabbatical leave from NYU until August 2026.
