Undergraduate Students

Undergraduate students/researchers can join my research group through Scientific Initiation, development of an Undergraduate Final Project or simply applying for an Undergraduate Research position in a given research project under my supervision. In general, my students come from the undergraduate programs of Computer Engineering, Electronics Engineering and Computer Science of Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE), but bright students of other disciplines are more than welcome.

If you are interested in joining my research group as an undergraduate researcher, please send me an e-mail. Please glance at my research interests.

My current undergraduate researchers are listed below.
