Research Opportunities ...
Opportunity for MS/PhD study with a full scholarship is available at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering or Department of Computer Science, College of Science and Engineering, Idaho State University, Idaho Falls, ID, USA. Research directions include (but not limited to): IoT Security and Privacy; Privacy Preserving Machine Learning; Smart Health Care Security and Privacy; and 6G Communications. Requirements include: (1) Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Applied Math or a related discipline; (2) High GPA; (3) Good programming and mathematical analysis/optimization skills; and (4) Good TOEFL/IELTS and GRE scores (given the candidate has already taken the tests).
Interested students please send a brief CV and unofficial transcript(s) to: mfouda@ieee.org
Potential candidate(s) will be contacted for an interview over Zoom, particularly for verifying domain knowledge in undergraduate project and/or Masters thesis, and programming skills.
Note: Applicants not fulfilling the aforementioned requirements will be deemed not serious, and will not be responded to.
