Ruijie Jerry Gao | University of Glasgow & UESTC

About Me

I am currently a junior pursuing a B.Eng. in a dual-degree program from the University of Glasgow and UESTC. I had the opportunity to gain valuable experience under the mentorship of Dr. Yu Zeng from Princeton University, during a research collaboration that spanned from the fall of 2022 to the summer of 2023. From August 2023 to December 2023, I was honored to join the EIC Lab at GaTech, where I worked under the supervision of Dr. Yang (Katie) Zhao on cutting-edge projects, further enhancing my research skills and knowledge in the field.

I am actively seeking PhD opportunities starting from 2025 Fall in Computer Architecture, Electronic Design Automation (EDA), and Machine Learning Systems. You can check my research statement here.
