Students who work with him will receive a full RA support (tuition + living stipend + 100% health insurance). Dr. Chen is eager to explore students’ potential and help them to become world-class researchers in the growing cyber security and privacy domain. If you do not have a good TOFEL score, also don’t hesitate to contact him (The GRE can be waived). He evaluates students based on their potential of doing research, rather than their current English skills (he will help you become a good English speaker/writer in the next few years and you don’t need to worry about it:-)).
