Graduate Student Openings
The Lightwave and Microwave Photonics Lab (WAVE Lab)
at the University of Georgia
The Lightwave and Microwave Photonics Lab (WAVE Lab) at the University of Georgia has
openings for graduate students with interests in Photonics, Lightwave Neuromorphic Signal
Processing, and Microwave Photonics. Areas of research in WAVE Lab include optical hybrid
analog/digital processing of signals based on neuromorphic algorithms, processing of microwave
signals based on ultrafast optical techniques, and all-optical signal processing based on
(nonlinear) photonics. We have a well-equipped research lab where we conduct experiments in
the above areas.
While students who would like to pursue graduate studies in one of the general areas listed above
are preferred, students are encouraged to develop their own research projects depending upon
their interests and the resources in WAVE Lab. Students interested in pursuing a Ph.D. degree
are preferred, though exceptional students interested in a M.S. degree will be considered.
Graduate research assistantships are available that includes a monthly stipend and full tuition
waiver.
Athens, home to the University of Georgia, is located 70 miles northeast of Atlanta and offers a
strong health-care system, affordable home/apartment rental prices, and educational amenities.
Unlike other engineering schools, the University of Georgia’s College of Engineering is
organized without departmental boundaries to promote advanced studies at the interface of
disciplines.
Prospective students are recommended to contact the WAVE Lab director – Dr. Mable Fok at
mfok@uga.edu and read the following webpages for more information. For full consideration,
please submit applications no later than January 31, 2015.
