A paper published by students and faculty from the Chandra Family Department of Electrical Engineering in collaboration with Meta has received an Outstanding Paper Honorable Mention at MLSys 2025, the premier conference on machine learning and systems.

Prof. Nina Telang of Texas ECE has been selected to join the prestigious Provost's Distinguished Leadership Service Academy (DLSA) at The University of Texas at Austin.

Texas Engineers have demonstrated a technique to trick light into behaving as if it was interacting with atomically thin metal films, setting the stage for the design and development of next-generation optoelectronic devices such as emitters, detectors and nano-sensors that could be used in health care, pollution detection, telecommunications and more.

Researchers developed an innovative new technique that allows accurate space and time reconstruction of optically scattering samples that undergo simple movements while being imaged.

Associate professor Zhangyang “Atlas” Wang and ph.D. student Peihao Wang have received a DARPA Disruptive Idea Paper Award at the International Conference on Neuro-symbolic Systems (NeuS), 2025.

11 years after joining Texas ECE, Charles J. (“Chuck”) Corley earned his Ph.D. in ECE in December 2024. He is the oldest person to ever earn a Ph.D. at The University of Texas at Austin. This Saturday, he will walk across the stage and be hooded by his advisor, Prof. Earl Swartzlander.

Texas ECE graduate student Dan Jacobellis and assistant professor Neeraja Yadwadkar have received the Capocelli Prize for Best Paper at the Data Compression Conference (DCC) 2025.

Texas ECE graduate student Allen-Jasmin Farcas has been awarded the William S. Livingston Outstanding Graduate Student Academic Employee Award for 2025.
