If you are not sure, but you still think we can be a good match, you should include me in your preferences when you submit your application, but your chances of getting matched with me improve if I have spoken to you first.

This applies to PhD prospective students.  MSc students are typically self-funded, but are always encouraged to get involved in research, in which case I can work with you on some project you can possibly complete for academic credit.

The Department is now matching PhD applicants to faculty advisors using an algorithmic process based on preferences of applicants, projected available research positions, and scoring from potential advisors.  If you are sure you want to work with me, get in touch early (meaning beginning of fall) so we can determine if there is common interest and if so, accelerate the process.
