Welcome to this page! I'm always looking for
self-motivated
and
rational
students to work with as PhDs, RAs, and interns (I usually do not take MPhil students).
Please fill out this Google Form
if you are interested.

I do read the emails but I will prefer the applications through the
form.
If you are at HKUST, you can also come to my office (Rm 2441) to talk
with me.
But how to reach out to professors effectively? I received many
applications everyday – some of them attract my attention immediately
and some of them are just ignored.
Please read the following part carefully.
How to write a CV?
Your CV should at least include the following information. You will be asked anyway so do not hide it back.
-
Research/project experiences (publications).
-
This is the most important things that I will look at. Usually
you need to have a network/system background if you want to apply for a
PhD with me.
-
You also need to clearly identify what is your role in the experiences.
-
If you have no research experiences before, you can still
apply for the PhD. But in that case, you need to be exceptionally
outstanding in other aspects.
-
If you still want to work with me, you can apply for the RA
and intern positions. We're now trying to build something big so we need
more hands.
-
GPA
and
rankings of your GPA.
-
This demonstrates your academic performance. It's okay if you're not the top. But it should not be too bad.
-
Different universities have different distributions and scales on GPA. So I need to know your ranking.
-
Awards
-
For example, National Scholarship. I understand some
universities have higher honors than this (e.g., December 9th, May 4th,
Guo Moruo).
-
Names of your referees and his/her contact information.
-
Grades of your top courses
and
network-related courses (e.g., computer networks)
How to demonstrate your interest in me? (for PhD candidates)
If you want to work with me as a PhD student, take a look at my
research statement
(it's only 3 pages!) and come up with a
research problem
that you want to work on in the email.

Your research question should elaborate the following three questions:
-
(Motivation) Why it's important? Why do we need to focus on this?
-
(Challenge) Why it's challenging? Why other researchers from last several decades cannot solve this?
-
(Timeliness) Why you believe now it's the right time to solve this? How?
