The trailblazers in human, academic, scientific and religious freedom have always been in the minority… It will take such a small committed minority to work unrelentingly to win the uncommitted majority. Such a group may transform America’s greatest dilemma into her most glorious opportunity.
Background
Paul Ampadu is an associate professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Rochester, where he directs the Embedded Integrated System-on-chip (EdISon) research group. Ampadu earned his PhD in electrical and computer engineering from Cornell University in 2004.
Interests
He serves on the steering committees of many mentoring and diversity-inclusion organizations and is fluent in many languages, including Chinese. In 1994 and 1995, he helped Microsoft Corporation ship the world’s first Japanese version of Microsoft Word for the Mac and the first 32-bit version of Office Far East for Windows (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean versions).
As an MLK visiting associate professor, Ampadu worked on algorithm and implementation methodology for energy constrained sensing and communication systems and assisted in courses offered under MIT’s new EECS curriculum.
