Arun Ravindran, Ph.D.

I am an Associate Professor with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.

My research and teaching interests lie in the intersection of Generative AI and System Software, specifically for IoT, Edge, and Cloud computing systems. My current research focuses on utilizing generative AI to enhance task automation, cybersecurity, electronic design automation, and cyberphysical systems. I am also involved in a National Science Foundation-funded project to develop a scalable edge infrastructure for real-time AI-driven video analytics. I am passionate about hands-on system prototyping and staying at the cutting-edge of technology. I enjoy collaborating with industry and academia, innovating teaching and learning, and mentoring students at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

I received my Ph.D. from The Ohio State University, and undergraduate degrees from the Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Pilani. In my spare time, I enjoy travel, Argentine Tango, BBQ, and Yoga.
