Jiaqi Yang

Hi! I am a senior undergraduate at the Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Tsinghua University. I major in Computer Science and Technology (Yao Class).

During Spring 2020 and Summer 2020, I visited the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, hosted by Prof. Yuan Zhou.

I am applying for graduate schools in 2020-21.
