Prospective Students

Joining the RPG Lab

For prospective students who are interested in our research and want to join our group, please feel free to send me your full CV, transcripts, test scores for GRE and TOEFL (if applicable).

If you have secured funding for your PhD studies, your chance would be higher.

Our college provides GRADUATE TUITION FELLOWSHIPS (GTF). The time limit for GTF for a student entering the Ph.D. program at UH with a Master’s degree is 4 academic years. Students entering the Ph.D. program directly after a baccalaureate program cannot qualify for the GTF for more than 5 academic years.

The GTF offered by the College of Engineering at UH is very attractive for prospective students who work in the industry but want to pursue a doctoral degree. It is also very attractive for prospective students who receive external funding that can only cover the living expense.
