For prospective students

I am looking for motivated graduate students. If you hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Communications Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, and have a keen interest on working in any of the research areas mentioned here and wish to work with me, drop me an email. You will be required to apply for the MTech (by research)/PhD program at SCEE, IIT Mandi and go through the selection process. In general, students aiming to work in these research areas, are necessitated to have a strong background in Linear Algebra, Probability and Random Processes and Differential Equations. An interest in coding helps too.

Project positions available!!

We are currently working on a project that is centered around the deployment of queue management strategies for Internet routers. The project is funded by SERB under DST, Govt. of India. Under this project, we have two “Project Associate” positions available. Click here for details.
