Teaching

Together with Alistair Sinclair, I am teaching CS 70: Discrete Mathematics and Probability Theory, as well as an experimental section which covers more probability. We hope the latter can develop into a department-wide introductory probability course.

Some previous courses I taught:

EECS 290S: Network Information Flow (joint with Anant Sahai)

EECS 226A: Random Processes in Systems

EECS 121: Introduction to Digital Communication Systems.

EECS 122: Communication Networks

EECS 20N: Signals and Systems

EECS 126: Probability and Random Processes

EECS 224: Digital Communications.

EE 229: Information Theory.

EECS 290Q: Advanced Topics in Communication Networks

We have an ongoing Networking and Communication Seminar, every Wednesday this semester. 


Research
