Congratulations to these students who have earned the PhD in Computer Science!
"Thanks to Mohammad for 5 years of fantastic mentorship. I cannot say enough about how much I learned from him. He taught me how to enjoy doing research and it's because of him that I'm still enjoying it. It's fascinating how much I learned and changed during my Ph.D. studies and I am extremely happy that I passed through this period with the guidance of an excellent mentor."

"I am forever thankful to my Ph.D. advisor, Professor Jack Stankovic, who has been a constant source of guidance, inspiration, and support. I have learned so much from him about research, academia, mentoring, and life in general. He is the best advisor one could ever ask for. I hope to treat my students with the same level of kindness, compassion, and respect that Jack has shown towards me. Professor Homa Alemzadeh has been a great mentor and role model for me. We closely collaborated on a research project and I really enjoyed working with her. She also supported me unconditionally in my academic job search. I thank her for all of her support and guidance. I also whole-heartedly thank all of my thesis committee members and collaborators, including, Professor Ronald Williams, Professor Laura Barnes, Professor Alfred Weaver, Professor Hongning Wang, Professor Kai-Wei Chang, and Professor Jack Davidson."

"I sincerely thank my advisor, Prof. Hongning Wang. One of the luckiest things in my life is to have him as my advisor. He cares about his students and is passionate about research. He guided my Ph.D. study with great patience. My Ph.D. at UVA is a life-changing experience for me and he is the key factor in this experience. I thank Prof. David Evans for chairing my dissertation committee, and his insightful suggestions on my dissertation. I thank Prof. Kevin Skadron, Haifeng Xu, Mary Lou Soffa, Yangfeng Ji, Yixin Sun, and Yuan Tian, for their help during my job search process. I thank Prof. Marty Humphrey, who was the chair of the graduate admission committee when I was admitted by UVA. He treats students' applications very carefully and is willing to spend time to develop students' potentials. "
