Information for Prospective Graduate Students

I am seeking highly qualified graduate students with a background in computer networking and wireless communications. I usually commence supervision of a limited number of new graduate students each academic year. When considering new students, I look for the following qualities because it has been my experience that they are key ingredients for success in graduate studies:.

• true desire to learn;
• willingness to work hard;
• ability to work independently;
• ability to be creative;
• desire to undertake original research.

Graduate Research Assistant Positions are available. Highly motivated, talented graduating students wishing to pursue M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in the area of wireless communications are encouraged to contact Prof. Jon Youn.
