Electrical engineering & Mathematics

Cameron Khanpour

Ph.D. student at Georgia Tech

I’m a Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech, working with Daniel K. Molzahn. I also hold an M.S. in Mathematics and work as a graduate research assistant at Sandia National Laboratories.

My research brings together optimization, probability, and numerical analysis to better understand electric power systems. I study how the structure of electrical networks can make their models more reliable and their computation more efficient.

A little more about me

Before graduate school, I worked as an electrical design engineer at Southern Nuclear. I received my B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Georgia Tech in December 2022.

Outside research, I enjoy fencing, wildlife preservation, and community volunteering.

At Georgia Tech, I serve as mentorship chair for the ECE Graduate Student Organization and vice chair of the IEEE Power & Energy Society student chapter.

I’m grateful for support from the Georgia Engineering Foundation Fellowship and the David L. Smith, PE Memorial Scholarship.
