Mu-En. Wu 吳牧恩

 

I am now a fourth-year Ph. D student in the Department of Computer Science (CS) at National Tsing Hua University (NTHU). My current researches include Cryptography, Quantum Computing, and Error Correcting Code. Besides, I also have a lot of interests in Mathematics. My advisor is Prof. Hung-Min Sun who is the Associate Professor in the CS department of NTHU. He is also the advisor of our Information Security Laboratory (IS Lab).
