What
do you like about your graduate program at Ohio State?
My
graduate program gives me the opportunity to study in an excellent
research environment under the supervision of experienced
professors. I believe that I am getting the academic background
and experience which I will use throughout my life.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you study and research?
My
field of study is Electromagnetics. Specifically, I work on
scattering problems and applications of high frequency methods.
.............................................................................................................
What
has been your experience in obtaining financial aid?
I
am a research assistant here and doing research on topics
related to certain
projects. At the same time, I am working on my master thesis.
In my opinion, the best way to get financial aid is to try
to contact with the professors and researchers who need graduate
students. Ask about their research areas and tell them about
your interests and background and try to match them.

What
do you like about Columbus?
I
most like the beauty of nature in Columbus, especially in
autumn. Walking by the river in autumn, while the leaves with
different colors are falling down, is really a good way of
relieving stress. Population is not dense in Columbus, so
there are not many problems like traffic/parking. Its quite,
safe and cheap, and people are friendly.
What
do you like about your graduate program at Ohio State?
The
Program of the department of Electrical Engineering at the
Ohio State University has been known widely in the world because
of its excellent academic work and research programs. Also,
faculty members are very good and nice. Some of the faculty
members are really famous in our field. It's very pleasure
to have a chance to work with them.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you study and research?
I
have studied and worked at the
ElectroScience Laboratory (ESL) as a Graduate Research
Associate (GRA) since 1998. ESL is very famous for outstanding
research works and well-designed academic programs in the
electromagnetics area (including antenna design, measurement,
and computational EM).
My
specialization in research is designing and optimizing various
types of antennas, especially automobile antennas (FM/GPS/SDARS).
If you want to use any kind of wireless equipment, it must
have an antenna. No antenna means no wireless.

What
do you like about Columbus?
I
think columbus is a very nice place to study. It's not a big
city like New York and it is more peaceful. There are many
places you can enjoy city-life. Also, the living expenses
are relatively low.

Why
did you decide to be a Buckeye!?
I
believe that you saw football games in last year and the
championship game. That's my answer!
What
do you like about your graduate program at Ohio State?
There
are two things that I truly enjoy about The Ohio state graduate
program. The first is simply the wonderful opportunities that
continuously present themselves to me through my time here.
These opportunities encompass everything from having discussions
with the intellectual elite who walk through the hallways
to being a cheering member at a sporting event. The second
thing that I enjoy here at Ohio State is the friendly atmosphere.
This atmosphere encourages students to partake in the open
door police of the professors and to have detail discussions
with other graduate students about research. Through these
wonderful opportunities and atmosphere, it is no wonder that
such grand projects have taken root and flourished here at
The Ohio State.
.............................................................................................................
What
has been your experience in obtaining financial aid?
I
have a research graduate position. I received it when I applied
to The Ohio State. I worked with a professor on a research
project.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you like about Columbus?
Columbus,
Ohio is a large city with a small town attitude. It is very
much of a college town. Also strangely enough it has a very
large foreign student body. This allows an ambitious student
not only the chance of learning his or her field of study
with some of the best people from around the world but also
a chance to acquire a view into the life styles and cultures
of many other students.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you study and research?
My
study of research is based on Geometrical Theory of Diffraction
in the field of Electromagnetics. For my masters, I worked
on a project which determined the far field pattern of an
antenna embedded in a multi-layer dielectric panel. A less
technical explanation on my master's thesis is assume that
an antenna is placed into a snow bank in the antarctic. I
determined a technique to find the antenna's radiation pattern
that allows communication with a satellite passing overhead!
What
do you like about your graduate program at Ohio State?
The
integrated and intensive graduate program in Electrical Engineering
at Ohio State is very helpful to my learning process. The
ElectroScience Lab, the laboratory that I am working in,
is among the top five schools in the Electromagnetics area.
Many of the faculty in the lab are very famous people in this
area and all faculty are enthusiastic in teaching.
.............................................................................................................
What
has been your experience in obtaining financial aid?
I
applied for financial aid when I applied to the Electrical
Engineering graduate program at Ohio State.
I am quite lucky that I have obtained financial support from
the ElectroScience
Lab in terms of my GRA (Graduate Research Associate) appointment
since I started the program. As a GRA student, I do research
for my adviser.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you study and research?
I
study Electrical Engineering program, majoring in Electromagnetics.
What
do you like about your graduate program at Ohio State?
The
Electrical Engineering program at Ohio State has many world-renowned
faculty members and research scientists. This allows a great
amount of flexibility in finding the particular area that
interests you most. Many times, finding out about an intriguing
topic is as easy as finding the right person to ask.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you like about Columbus?
Columbus
has many of the advantages of a really big city with few of
the disadvantages. There are lots of great performances, events,
and separate districts to explore.
.............................................................................................................
What
do you study and research?
My
area of interest is radar systems. I am currently responsible
for integrating a pre-existing radar with a computer-controlled
switching system and writing the necessary software upgrades.
.............................................................................................................
Why
did you decide to be a Buckeye!?
Many
students that I work with came from around the world to attend
Ohio State. I am an Ohio native, so the opportunity to be
part of a top research University close to home was a clear
choice for me.
