Hi, all!
I'm new here ?
I'm graduating from Russian top master's program this year, and wish to apply for Ph.D. in Computer science in US for fall 2021. I am interested in Computer vision. I am really looking for help from kind people of GradCafe with my profile evaluation. Particularly, I am worried about my low GPA at bachelor.
Bachelor institution: top-ranked Russian university. GPA: 3.0/4.0
Major: Data Analysis
Master institution: other top-ranked Russian university. GPA 3.92/4.0
Major: Computer Science
IELTS - 7.0
Type of Student = Muslim male
Research experience:
working as part-time researcher at my masters supervisor's lab
1 summer research internship at top Russian research lab in computer vision.,
Work experience:
1 industrial 6-month l internship
one year as Computer vision engineer at photo-editing app start-up
Publications: 2 so-so papers (one is first-authored)
LoRs:
first is very strong from my current research supervisor,
second is from my summer internship supervisor, who is well-known in the field of computer vision. but we did not interact much, so he can't say a lot about me
third is good from other senior researcher, I worked with
Teaching: have a lot of experience in teaching as Lead TA and Lecturer
Schools I like:
(top) University of Virginia, UT Austin
(medium) UIC, Northeastern university
(low) Rochester institute of technology
How are my chances? Am I good enough for these schools (at least medium and low ones)?
Thanks in advance!
