Academic Advising
Since joined Ohio State University in September 2008, I have advised 11 doctoral students (graduated 3 Ph.D. students in 2010, 2011, and 2012), 4 M.S. students (graduated 1 in 2010), 2 post-doctoral researchers, 5 undergraduate researchers (including 3 senior honor students), 9 visiting scholars, and more than 30 undergraduate students (as the academic advisor). The graduated Ph.D. and M.S. students joined major universities and industrial companies. In addition, I also severed on dissertation/candidacy committees for over 20 Ph.D. students supervised by other faculty members.
