Prospective Graduate Students

I am always looking for motivated students with a strong background in power systems and control systems. Candidates should have the following qualifications:

  • Background in LCC- or VSC-based HVDC systems
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink environment
  • Strong foundation in control systems and power systems
  • Experience with PSCAD/EMTDC
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills

If you are interested in joining my research group, please email me with the subject line "Prospective Graduate Student – Admission Request" and attach a PDF copy of your complete CV. Your email should include:

  • Your full name
  • Degree details (university, country, graduation year, and GPA)
  • The degree program you are applying for (PhD or MASc)
  • TOEFL/IELTS scores (if applicable)
  • List of publications
  • Your status in Canada (domestic or international student)

Funding and application process

Qualified students will receive financial support through a combination of research and teaching assistantships. You may list my name as your requested supervisor in your application.

Due to the high volume of emails I receive, I may not be able to respond to all inquiries. Only applicants who meet the required qualifications and have submitted a formal application through the University of Waterloo's online system will be considered for an interview.

Please note that admission to graduate studies at Waterloo is highly competitive. I am unable to assess your chances of acceptance before all applications are received..
