Robert Lupoiu
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2021
BioRobert is a PhD candidate in Electrical Engineering, co-advised by Jonathan Fan and Ivan Soltesz. His research is generously supported by the Knight-Hennessy Scholars program.
Robert's work has been focused on pushing the boundaries of optical engineering and neuroscience through innovations in machine learning and applied physics. Most recently, he developed agentic reasoning frameworks that leverage a new class of ultra-fast and general Maxwell surrogate solvers to power the automated design of multi-objective, multi-wavelength metasurfaces in near real-time (as opposed to weeks of manual specialized design work). -

Research Assistant for CTL grant, Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality StudiesCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research lies at the intersection of higher education, immigration, and family studies, with an emphasis on how the children of Latinx immigrants make sense of their higher education trajectories and aspirations. I am particularly interested in the role of families within college choice decision-making and employ both qualitative and data science methods to investigate how familial values and knowledge is employed throughout the college application process for Latinx students.
