  Notice for Graduate Applicants Seeking Research Assistantships
 
 

Research assistantships in the areas of two-phase boiling, particle image velocimetry, micro-fuel cells, numerical method, and CFD may be available depending on my funding situation. If you are interested in the RAships, please e-mail me the following items:

 
 

  • Resume (type it in formal US version)

  • Personal statement (describing your motivation and experience)

  • Research statement (describing your research achievement and your plan for your Ph.D. study)

  • International publications in English

  • Transcripts in English (if you have a master degree, please send me both undergraduate and graduate transcripts)
  The requirements for a research assistant are:
   
 
  • Master degree earned or to be earned before your enrollment in the Ph.D. program at the Dept. of MAE, U. of Florida
  • Master thesis in the areas of my research interests
  • International conference or journal publications in the areas of my research interests
  • GPA>=3.5
  • GRE and TOEFL (for international students) scores satisfy the MAE department requirements
    •  

    The RAship will only be given to Ph.D. applicants who satisfy all the above requirements.  I judge the performance of an applicant mainly based on international publications (in English).  Due to a large number of emails I receive every day, I reply to the applicants only if I need more information, or decide to interview the applicants.   If you are offered the RAship and choose to join my group, I look forward to giving you an enjoyable and rewarding experience working with me.
     
     

    For those who have sent me emails, I am sorry if you haven't heard from me. Due to the large number of emails I receive every day, I may not be able to reply to each email. But I encourage you to apply to University of Florida.  It is a nice place to pursue your Ph.D. or M.S. The MAE department offers many fellowships and TA positions to new students each year.

     
     

    Please do not call my phone if you do not hear from me through email.  Due to my limited time, I am unable to handle applications through phone.  Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.  Good luck for your application!

     
      Feel qualified? OK, read this first before you contact me.
