I am Premkishore from India and I have completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at the University of Texas at Austin. It was a great learning experience.
Selection process and gaining admission
I had done my bachelors in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology. Getting an admit to the University of Texas at Austin was very straight forward.
I was awarded a research assistantship by the university. I also had the opportunity to work as a Teaching Assistant in the Dept. of Computer Sciences at the university.
My thesis advisor for the PhD program was Dr. Steve Keckler. He was an excellent guide and I learnt a lot form him. I have had the opportunity to publish papers and referee conference papers, journal articles and workshop papers.
I worked as a Teaching Assistant for a period of time at the university. My duties included conducting discussion sections, holding office hours, grading exams, supervising graders, and grading homework assignments. I also had the opportunity to do my Graduate Research Internship at Western Research Lab (WRL), Compaq and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Sunnyvale during this time. These programs were very rewarding.
