Prospective Graduate Students

Positions might become available for highly motivated PhD students who have the background and experience in one or more of the research areas carried out in PPRL. Potential opportunities may exist for students to collaborate with leading tech companies and laboratories on high-performance communication for HPC and Deep Learning, and supercomputing technologies. Exceptional MASc students with a firm committment to continue their PhD studies in PPRL after graduation or through promotion may be considered as well. Queen's ECE undergraduate students interested in our 4+1 Accelerated Master's program are welcome to contact me for opportunities for graduate studies. 

If you are interested in our research and have the necessary background, you are welcome to formally apply to our graduate program.  In the meantime, you may email me a copy of your resume including your research interests, educational and professional background, and a list of publications, if available. For inquiries regarding the application process, please contact Cheryl Wright or Debra Fraser, our Graduate Program Assistants, or see the ECE graduate studies web page.

Please send me your resume if you are interested in a research position in the PPRL research group. The candidates should have a strong background and experience in one or more of research areas carried out in PPRL.
