📢 Join the Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at USC School of Advanced Computing! USC has launched a $1 billion “Frontiers of Computing” initiative, establishing the new School of Advanced Computing within the Viterbi School of Engineering. With up to 30 new faculty positions, this initiative will support research advances across the field of computing, from materials, devices and systems to theory, algorithms and software with applications including AI, machine learning, robotics, bioengineering, quantum information processing, communications, signal processing, control, and data science. As part of this broader initiative in addition to a junior faculty search, the ECE department is recruiting faculty at the Associate Professor and Full Professor levels.

About us
The Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is one of the largest departments in the USC Viterbi School of Engineering. Students can receive degrees in electrical or computer engineering at the undergraduate, masters, and PhD level. Our total undergraduate enrollment is about 330 students. Regular tenured or tenure-track faculty teach the vast majority of core undergraduate courses, including freshman seminars, survey courses, senior design projects, circuits, electronics and electromagnetics. In recent years, USC undergraduates in engineering as a group are among the brightest in the university, as measured by their incoming GPA and SAT scores, placing them in the same category as incoming undergraduates at the top five engineering schools in the US News and World Report rankings. We have a large graduate program with approximately 1000 M.S. students and 350 Ph.D. students. The Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has a total of more than 60 tenured and tenure track faculty, and also employs several part-time lecturers to staff all our course offerings, primarily in specialty fields. The department is administratively divided into several major teaching and research groups: signal and image processing, communications, computer engineering, controls, and electrophysics. Research in signal and image processing includes: speech, audio, biological genomics/proteomics signal processing; compression, multimedia, human-computer interfaces; biomedical imaging; neural and fuzzy theory. Research in communication theory and coding includes: optical, wireless, ultra-wideband (UWB) and spread spectrum communications; and quantum information processing (QIP). Computer engineering research topics include: VLSI design and CAD, testing, digital transceivers, asynchronous logic, computer networks, wireless and sensor networks, computer architecture, reconfigurable computing, and systems.

Fascinating story from Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California on the collab between USC Viterbi School of Engineering's Maryam Shanechi and KSOM's Steven Siegel and Charles Liu. Shanechi is founding director of the USC Center for #Neurotechnology, and the Viterbi-KSOM team is working on one of the center's signature programs — a quest to objectively characterize major depression symptoms using multiple measurable signals. https://lnkd.in/g8GX3h7C
