- Dear Sir/Madam:
-
- I am posting my resume here as I am currently a PhD candidate in Electrical
- Engineering at the University of Cincinnati, and expect to graduate in
- December 1992. My area of research is Neural Networks, Digital Signal
- Processing, and Fuzzy Control and I am looking for opportunities to do basic
- or applied research and development in these or related areas after my
- graduation. Besides these major research areas I have had research experience
- in other areas including Genetic Algorithms, Signal Processing Architectures,
- and Optical Computing/Signal Processing. With this unique blend of experience
- in a wide spectrum of areas I feel confident that I can devise solutions to
- research and development problems and contribute in both hardware and software
- design.
-
- I am looking for work with a group of strongly-motivated experienced
- individuals with intense interest in particular areas. The most important
- thing from my point of view is an environment where ideas can be exchanged,
- and new ones thus created. I have no geographical preference.
-
- My resume follows. If there is any interest in my background feel free to
- contact me and I will mail you a nicer formatted copy of my resume.
- Thank you for your consideration.
-
-
- Sincerely,
-
- Girish Govind
