More Information
“I was hesitant to attend Cornell because it is my undergraduate alma mater, afraid that doing so would limit my experience, but after visiting several other schools I was most impressed with the energetic people and creative research going on in ECE at Cornell. The department strives to provide a positive environment for fledgling researchers to grow into skilled ones.”
