Graduate Research Positions: Semiconductors

Given present  circumstances, I do not presently expect to be recruiting Ph.D. students for September 2027.

 

Do please write to me, but see the notes below:

_________________________________________

 

The group regularly recuits new Ph.D. students with interests in IC design, semiconductor devices, and materials growth.  The normal application process to the department and the university should be followed; please mention Rodwell group in your application if you would like to work in our team. 

 

If you would like to write to me by email, please note the following. Each Autumn, professors receive many auto-list-generated emails from prospective students. Please do not do this: I can't respond to such letters. To help me respond to your personal note, please keep your letter and your resume short and focused, tell me your class rank, your grades, your publications, your interests, the specific group project you wish to join, and provide the name of a well-known researcher or professor whom I can contact to obtain a reference. Letters are for introduction: you must formally apply for graduate admission to UCSB, and admissions are decided on the basis of those applications. 

 

Graduate students applying to admission to the ECE department can be admitted into the M.S., Ph.D., or combined M.S./Ph.D. programs.   Students seeking financial support from Rodwell group in the form of Research assistantships should apply for admission to the Ph.D.  or combined  M.S./Ph.D. programs.

 

I am very happy to work with M.S.-only students on research projects. Please contact me. But, I cannot provide financial support for students working on such short-term projects,
