Multiple Positions for PhD

I am actively looking for motivated students with a strong background in any (or several) of mathematics (optimization, linear algebra, matrix analysis, etc.), computer programming, machine (or deep) learning, and computer architecture to join our newly established research group at DASS Lab for a PhD.

If you are enthusiastic about research in topics related to machine learning, parallel and distributed computing, and computer systems for efficient edge computing, and deeply interested in building a research group as a founding member, please consider submitting our Research Interest Form.

To complete the formal application, you MUST apply to the PhD program (Direct or Post-MS) offered in the ECE Department at the UofA — Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), or Software Engineering (SFWE).

The department processes graduate applications throughout the year. TA and scholarships for the Fall semester are determined by the pool of Fall applicants who apply by the priority deadline of December 1, 2025. Our lab also warmly welcomes highly motivated M.S. students and undergraduates at UofA to explore research opportunities with us.
