Prospective Graduate & Honors Students
“I am always keen on talking with new students. If you are interested in doing a thesis (PhD, Master's or Honor's) or a directed studies in the areas of computer graphics, animation or visualization then feel free to drop by or send me an email to discuss it. I have a number of projects on the go and would be interested in supervising students with some level of experience with animation, graphics, image processing or visualization (i.e. having taken a course in any of these topics would be fine).”
