Hi, my name is Sajjad, and I am a graduate student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at The Ohio State University. I completed my undergraduate studies at Sharif University of Technology, widely regarded as the top engineering institution in Iran. Admission to the Electrical Engineering program for a bachelor’s degree at Sharif is extremely competitive, with only the top 0.1% of applicants accepted. I ranked 48th among more than 150,000 applicants.
During my undergraduate studies, I also pursued a minor in Computer Science to strengthen my understanding of the theoretical foundations essential for solving complex problems in computer engineering.
Currently, I am pursuing my Ph.D. at OSU, focusing on designing hardware accelerators for homomorphic encryption (HE), and I am eager to make meaningful contributions in this field.
In my free time, I enjoy playing and watching soccer and volleyball, playing video games, hiking, biking, watching movies, and going to the gym.
