Jingbo Wang PhD in Computer Science
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
What do you consider your greatest accomplishment?
What's your favorite impulse purchase from the past 12 months?
Nintendo switch! During COVID, most of the time, we have to stay at home. Playing some games (e.g. animal crossing) on Nintendo switch is really relaxing
Please describe a little about your research and what excites you about it.
If you could choose any other profession outside of engineering or computer science, what would it be?
I think I would like to pursue J.D. or LL.M in law school. For some of the code-based laws, it is well suited to apply formal methods and logic to represent them. Researchers have proposed a default logic to formalize the federal tex code and its accompanying regulations. What I’m currently doing is applying the logic to formalize the behavior of the software. In the future, I wish I could use that to formalize code-based laws, to detect ambiguities and drafting errors.
What are some factors that helped you decide to pursue your PhD at USC?
There are so many reasons:) First, the professor I want to work with is at USC. Second, there are many PL/SE researchers in USC and we could discuss, collaborate in many possible ways. The atmosphere here is really motivating. Third, USC has so many female clubs (e.g. WinCC, WiSE) where we could learn from each other’s experiences and try to encourage more females in the STEM area. Fourth, USC provides many valuable classes such as public speaking, creative thinking, arts performance and etc. It really broadens our horizons in addition to our own expertise. Last but not least, LA is such a special city with palm trees, skateboarding teens, oddball bohemians, and the occasional movie star. You will fall in love with it once you come here.
If you were to recommend to an incoming student 3 places to go in California/Los Angeles, what would they be?
Griffith observatory, Universal Studios, Getty center
What is a memory you'll cherish about your time at USC?
There are so many unforgettable memories at USC. The farmer’s market outside Leavey library, annual conquest rally, birthday celebrations for our lab-mates, and hanging out together in USC Village.
What's one thing about you that might surprise me?
Although I give public presentations in the premier conference and make friends with other researchers, I am a typical introvert and I dislike social activities. When attending the conference, people are expected to interact with each other over few days. To be frank, I enjoy talking with people and introducing my research. However, none of these could compare favorably to solitary. I always spend a lot of time learning and reflecting in solitude. It’s more like a meditation where I could relax and talk with myself.
What are your plans after graduation?
I plan to stay in academia and look for faculty jobs or other research-related jobs.

Kegan Strawn PhD in Computer Science
I subscribe to the "next right step" advice. Life can be overwhelming at times, especially during your studies, and focusing on the next right step rather than the entire mountain you are trying to hike up has really helped me every day.
I come from a family where no one has been in academia and I was not exposed to anything close to it growing up. Research, and even college, felt like this scary gated community that only a certain few could participate in and I'm very grateful to those in my undergraduate studies who helped open the gate for me and showed me that anyone can do this. Don't get me wrong, I have many privileges in my life, but I'm very proud to be here at USC and working hard among some very smart peers every day.
Last week I bought an LA Dodgers hat at the game against the Giants. I think this means I can officially say I live here now.
I work in multi-robot coordination and collaboration. I'm very interested in how robots can work together with other robots and humans as part of a team to help improve our lives. It's slightly different from the majority of current work that is about training a robot to beat us at a certain game or to replace a job completely. I spend a lot of my time thinking about how we can improve the algorithms they use and the way they learn to work together and I find it incredibly fun and rewarding work.
If you could choose any other profession outside of engineering or computer science, what would it be?
I always wanted to be a veterinarian when I grew up. I love animals and find biology and genetics fascinating. So, I think I still want to be a vet when I finally grow up.
If they are looking to live somewhere I highly recommend the Culver City area. For things to see, I really like the Getty Center for not only the art but the cool architecture and outdoor garden. I also love cruising up and down the pacific coast highway and going to any of the beaches (although Hermosa beach down south is my favorite). Finally, I'd recommend some Korean BBQ in Koreatown.
I only applied to drama colleges for college. I was fully expecting to only ever be in LA for acting, but now I'm here for my Ph.D. working in computer science and robotics. Life has a crazy way of working out!
Currently, I am interested in continuing in academia with a postdoctoral position.

Professor Nora Ayanian
Kushal Chawla PhD in Computer Science
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
One should never judge their own or someone else’s decisions based on the outcomes (that is, in hindsight). That’s just unfair! Instead, think about whether the decision made sense, given the situation you were in. If you are in a similar situation again, how can you make a better call?
That has to be the network of friends and colleagues that I could build from a variety of professional experiences in both academia and industry. Life is a bit easier with folks you can always turn up to for some advice and of course, for referrals!

I am currently working on enabling human-machine negotiations in natural language such as in English. Think about buyer-seller price negotiations or salary negotiations. Automated systems that negotiate with humans can be really helpful in advancing conversational AI and for teaching social skills to humans. Most practical systems in this space are based on restrictive communication protocols such as a predefined menu of options. Instead, I am trying to incorporate more natural means of communication such as language so that these systems can be more useful in the downstream applications. This area opens up exciting avenues for interdisciplinary research between NLP, Affective Computing, and Psychology. For a glimpse of what I do, here is a TechXplore blog that covers our recent work published at NAACL-HLT 2021: https://techxplore.com/news/2021-05-casino-campsite-based-dialogs- automatic.html
A full-time host for grand cultural events! I just love the job and the feel that comes with it! Even now, I grab such opportunities with both hands.
First and foremost, my interactions with the lab that I am joining. I would definitely recommend that to all the prospective students. Secondly, the ever-increasing research opportunities and a helpful environment over here at USC. Lastly, it would be unfair if I don’t include this but the nice LA weather was always there at the back of my mind.
- Weekend getaway at Big Bear - Manhattan beach - Hikes in Malibu
I am a part of a religious organization at USC called the Bridges International. In Fall 2019, we went to Big Bear for a weekend, in a group of nearly 30. We rented out two huge houses near the lake, danced and sang songs from different cultures around the globe, and went for a hike! Amazing experience!
I have an OCD of repeatedly checking the locks and always making sure that everything is locked. It is so bad that once, during my undergrad, I preferred to calmly lock my door first, when everyone else was vacating the building due to a strong earthquake. As a side note, I later got to know that my friend ran with a laptop in her hand: the most expensive stuff that she could find in her room. People have weird priorities!
I am keeping it wide open for now, although I am slightly inclined towards joining the industry again, given my previous experience as a full-time researcher at Adobe for a couple of years.

English Proficiency
English-language proficiency requirements.
Effective for applications submitted for summer 2024 and later terms only.
The ability to communicate effectively in English—to read, write and speak the language fluently—is vital to your success as a USC student.
International graduate applicants are therefore expected to demonstrate their proficiency in English as part of the application process and should carefully review the guidelines below.
U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents (such as green card holders) are considered to be “domestic” applicants, regardless of where they have studied or reside. Domestic applicants are exempt from the university’s English-proficiency requirements.
Test Score Guidelines
Important: USC does not set university-wide score minimums for graduate admission. The scores listed below are typically used for placement purposes only—to determine if an admitted student will need to take the International Student English (ISE) examination upon arrival at USC.
English-proficiency scores must be dated within 2 years (24 months) of the date you submit your graduate application. For example, a prospective student applying to fall 2024 who submits their USC application in December 2023 will need to have taken the test no earlier than December 2021.
TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language)
USC accepts the TOEFL iBT Home Edition, iBT Paper Edition, and the standard in-person TOEFL iBT administered in official test centers. Admitted students are exempt from taking the ISE Exam with the following scores:
| 100 or above, with 20 or above in each section. | |
| 90 or above, with 20 or above in each section. |
Sending official scores to USC: USC must receive scores electronically from the testing service for them to be considered official. Photocopies or paper copies of scores are not acceptable.
USC’s institution code is 4852. No department code is required.
IELTS (International English Language Testing System)
USC accepts IELTS Academic and IELTS Indicator (Online version) scores. Admitted students are exempt from taking the ISE Exam with the following scores:
| 7 or above, with 6 or above on each band. | |
| 6.5 or above, with 6 or above on each band. |
Sending official scores to USC: USC must receive scores electronically from the testing service for them to be considered official. Photocopies or paper copies of scores from the testing service are not acceptable.
Select “University of Southern California” from the list of available institutions when you register to take the IELTS test.

Special Accommodations
The Educational Testing Service (TOEFL), the British Council (IELTS) and Pearson (PTE Academic) will provide accommodations for those with disabilities.
Score Minimums Set by Programs
Please note that some individual programs may set internal score minimums that are higher than those listed here. Please refer to your intended graduate program(s) for information about their English proficiency requirements.
English-Language Test Waiver
International applicants are exempt from submitting English-proficiency scores under the following circumstances:
- You hold a degree (bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate) from USC or are currently enrolled in a USC degree program.
- You hold a bachelor’s degree completed in its entirety in the United States or the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor’s degree in a qualifying Anglophone country (as defined below). To determine degree equivalency, please refer to our country requirements .The bachelor’s degree should be earned at a regionally accredited university located in the United States, or at an officially recognized university in another country where English is both the language of instruction and the only officially recognized language of the country. The entire program needs to have been completed in the qualifying country. Dual-degree holders who completed just part of their degree in the U.S. or other qualifying country, and students who have transferred credits from a non-Anglophone country, do not qualify for this waiver.
- You have completed a master’s or doctoral degree from a country in which English is both the language of instruction and the only official language. The degree needs to have already been completed at the time you submit your USC application. Applicants who have not yet completed a qualifying master’s or doctoral program at the time they apply will still need to submit English-proficiency scores.
- Your native language is English. This applies to native English speakers from countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada (except Quebec), where English is both the only official language of the country and the language of instruction.
USC does not waive the English-proficiency requirement based on any other consideration such as work experience, ESL enrollment, amount of time spent in the U.S., etc. It also cannot be waived on the basis of programs taught in English in non-Anglophone countries.
To determine if USC requires TOEFL/IELTS/PTE scores for your country of study, please check our Country Requirements page.
USC International Academy
Students looking to prepare their English and academic skills for the rigors of graduate study at USC may wish to explore the USC International Academy as an option.
Exceptions: The Office of Graduate Admission does not have the authority to grant exemptions to the university’s English-proficiency policies on the basis of applicant requests. Exemption requests submitted directly to our office by applicants themselves are automatically denied. If you have extraordinary circumstances that you believe may merit an individualized exemption, please contact your intended graduate program to discuss available options.

UNC Hussman welcomes 4 new thought leaders in research and industry to the faculty
The UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media welcomes four distinguished new faculty members this academic year — adding to the school’s depth of scholarly and professional expertise in strategic growth areas.
Shaun Anderson joins the school as its new Knight Chair in Sports, Race and Media. Esther Campi becomes a professor of the practice in public relations. UNC Hussman Ph.D. alumna Meredith D. Clark returns as an associate professor of race and political communication. And Rebecca Fish begins as a professor of the practice in health communication and marketing.
The appointments became effective July 1, 2024.
“Our UNC Hussman community of thought leaders in research and industry grows yet stronger with the addition of Shaun Anderson, Esther Campi, Meredith Clark and Rebecca Fish to the faculty,” said Raul Reis, dean of the school. “Our school’s tradition of blending accomplished professionals and leading scholars endures as we evolve to meet the needs of our students and the opportunities that emerge in a rapidly changing media environment.”
Shaun Anderson
Knight chair in sports, race and media.
Anderson joins UNC from Loyola Marymount University, where he served as department chair and associate professor of communication studies. He brings expertise in sport communication; corporate social responsibility; and the intersection of race, culture and athletics.
As Knight Chair, Anderson will teach undergraduate and graduate courses, develop the school’s sports communication curriculum and lead initiatives examining sports, race and media. He will build industry relationships, identify student internships and serve as a mentor to Carolina’s future media leaders.
Anderson earned his Ph.D. in Sport Communication from West Virginia University. His research focuses on activism, strategic communication and justice in sports. He has authored two books, and his work has appeared in outlets including the Huffington Post and the World Policy Institute. He has consulted for organizations such as Major League Baseball, Nike, PBS and the Anti-Defamation League.
“The late former South African President Nelson Mandela proclaimed that sport is more powerful than governments in eradicating racial barriers and discrimination,” Anderson said. “In this role, I am seeking to continue his legacy throughout the university, Carolina and the globe.
Esther Campi
Professor of the practice in public relations.
Campi brings nearly 30 years of experience in strategic communications, public affairs and crisis management into the classroom to teach and mentor students in the school’s advertising and public relations curriculum. She will also serve as a mentor and facilitate networking opportunities for students.
She previously taught public relations writing as a lecturer at the school.
As CEO and founder of Campi & Company, she has advised America’s top business leaders on high-stakes communications issues. Her career includes serving as senior vice president of communications for the Metro Atlanta Chamber and as a spokesperson for U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson. Campi also worked as a journalist, earning two Associated Press awards.
Campi earned a master’s degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism, Media, Integrated Marketing Communication and a bachelor’s in mass communication from Middle Tennessee State University.
“For many years, I’ve been honored to import lessons directly from my industry clients into the classroom as a frequent guest speaker and former adjunct at this legendary school,” Campi said. “In my new role, I am thrilled to continue training the next generation of PR pros as they prepare to give voice to the ideas and institutions that shape our world.”
Meredith D. Clark
Associate professor of race and political communication.
Clark comes to UNC Hussman from Northeastern University, where she was an associate professor and the founding director of the Center for Communication, Media Innovation & Social Change. She previously held faculty positions at the University of Virginia and University of North Texas.
Clark, who earned her Ph.D. from UNC Hussman in 2014, focuses her research on race, media and power, with particular emphasis on Black digital culture and media. She is the author of the forthcoming book “We Tried to Tell Y’all: Black Twitter & Black Digital Resistance.”
In her new role at Hussman, Clark will conduct research; teach undergraduate and graduate courses; and play a senior leadership role with the UNC Center for Information, Technology, and Public Life as a principal investigator. She will also contribute to the school’s new political communication certificate program and Washington D.C. residency initiative.
Clark’s work has been published in journals including Social Media & Society, New Media & Society and the International Journal of Press and Politics. She has received research grants from organizations such as the Knight Foundation, the Democracy Fund and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
“There’s no greater honor than being welcomed back to my alma mater as a member of the faculty,” said Clark. “I look forward to returning the support I received from the Carolina community through my work in the classroom and beyond.”
Rebecca Fish
Professor of the practice in health communication and marketing.
Fish brings more than 25 years of healthcare experience across both the public and private sectors to her role at UNC Hussman. As a leader of the school’s certificate program in health communication and marketing, she will leverage a deep background in business and policy to prepare students for careers in the growing field of healthcare marketing and communications strategy.
Fish worked for global pharmaceutical manufacturers Merck and GlaxoSmithKline, biotechnology firms and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services before starting her own consulting business. She has served in a variety of leadership positions, ranging from vice president of marketing to senior policy adviser to the U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of Health. She is particularly interested in global health security and public private partnerships and has published articles and book chapters on these subjects.
An accomplished educator, Fish has been a guest lecturer at Duke, Dartmouth and Johns Hopkins universities. She holds an MBA from Duke University and a bachelor’s in neuroscience from Mount Holyoke College.
“I am delighted to be joining the UNC community because I see a huge strategic opportunity to combine Hussman’s excellence in communications with UNC’s powerful reputation in healthcare. It’s exciting to be part of this!” said Fish. “My goal is to bring real-world experience into the classroom and prepare students to succeed on the job on day one.”
As UNC Hussman welcomes Anderson, Campi, Clark and Fish, the school continues to build its faculty ranks further with searches for six new faculty members over the next academic year.
