2021 Fall Computer science PhD Profile Evaluation

[reconnect7]

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!
