First CMU Freshman Engineering Student Published

"After spending his freshman year working in Dr. Kumar Yelamarthi’s electrical engineering lab, engineering student Dylan Richards’ research paper entitled 'How Does encryption Influence Timing in IoT?' has been accepted for presentation at the 2018 IEEE Global Conference of Internet of Things.

This marks the first time a CMU freshman engineering student has published his scientific findings at a peer-reviewed international conference."

The conference was hosted in Alexandria, Egypt.

President of Central Michigan University

Congratulations Dylan! These opportunities are presented, and seized upon by CMU students, because we are a large enough to this reach, and small enough to have faculty mentor students one-on-one. And, we have great students!! #FireUpforExcellence #FireUpforStudents


This was in response to research being presented.
