Henriques said one of his favorite courses so far has been the Car Lab, a required course for every ECE major where they build their own autonomous vehicles. “It gave us an opportunity to work on a project end to end, and there’s a lot of creativity involved,” he said. “My teammate and I built a robot that walks around and if it…
Led by Verma, a professor of electrical and computer engineering and director of the Keller Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, the team reimagined computer chips specifically to run powerful AI systems using much less energy than today’s most advanced semiconductors. This allows systems made with the Princeton technology to run AI…

Her research has led to the creation of faster and more efficient algorithms for solving complex…
Chen, promoted to associate professor of electrical and computer engineering and the Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment, works on developing smaller, smarter and more energy-efficient power electronics. Those components help convert and control electrical power in robots, electric vehicles, information…
Prateek Mittal has received the 2023 ACM Grace Murray Hopper Award — one of the most prestigious in computing research — for developing a robust method for preserving internet privacy and security.
Princeton researchers have created a tool that allows small networks such as businesses and universities to improve the performance and privacy of their internet traffic.
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering held its graduate commencement ceremony on Monday, May 27, 2024, celebrating the 28 doctoral students and 16 master’s students who earned graduate degrees over the past year. The ceremony featured an invited speaker, 2023 Turing Award winner Avi Wigderson, a graduate alumnus, and the presentation of the department’s annual graduate student awards.
"Life is full of the unexpected," said James Sturm, chair and Stephen R. Forrest Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He said he was most proud of the graduates in those moments they had to build on their coursework to solve unanticipated problems. "You had to figure it out on your own and learn from each other."
The School of Engineering and Applied Science has honored wireless communications expert Yasaman Ghasempour for early-career excellence in research and teaching. She is one of three recipients of the E. Lawrence Keyes, Jr./Emerson Electric Co. Faculty Advancement Award and one of seven assistant professors to receive a junior faculty award this…
The School of Engineering and Applied Science has honored Claire Gmachl with an award for excellence in mentoring. This annual award was created in 2023 by the engineering school to recognize faculty for some of their most important work beyond research and teaching.
Claire Gmachl is the Eugene Higgins…
A project that combines robotics and light-based computer circuits to create safe self-driving vehicles has been selected for funding through Princeton’s Eric and Wendy Schmidt Transformative Technology Fund.
Led by Paul Prucnal, professor of electrical and computer engineering, and…
After a coast-to-coast bike trip ended in an accident near Death Valley National Park, Vinay Konuru found himself with a broken collarbone and an unexpected amount of free time.
Recuperating at his home in Florida in the summer before his sophomore year at Princeton, Konuru picked up every book he could get his hands on.
One book,…
