Dear MEMS colleagues : I'm a graduate student currently involved in a MEMS-related project at the National University of Singapore. I'm interested in MEMS, particularly in micromachining technology, microstructures, micro mechanical sensors, microactuators so on. I'm looking for oppotunities of pursuing doctoral studying in MEMS, starting from the fall of 2002. The following is a brief description of my education background. Any information or suggestions are sincerely appreciated!
