Biography

I am an associate professor of the  Electrical & Computer Engineering Department  (ECE) department of  North South University (NSU), Dhaka, Bangladesh. I joined NSU in Dec 2015. I completed my PhD from Virginia Tech in Fall 2015. During my PhD, I worked as a Graduate Research Assistant (GRA) with my adviser, Dr. T. M. Murali, from the Summer of 2011 to the Fall of 2015. I worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) at Virginia Tech from Fall 2010 to Spring 2011. Before that, I worked as a lecturer at American International University Bangladesh (AIUB), Dhaka, Bangladesh. I received a B.Sc. in Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) from Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology (BUET) in 2008.
