Suraj Rampure
Hi there! As of Fall 2021, I am a Lecturer in the Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute at UC San Diego.
I graduated with BS and MS degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from UC Berkeley in 2020 and 2021, respectively. There, I was advised by Josh Hug and helped create and teach courses in computer science and data science. I’m originally from Windsor, Ontario 🇨🇦.
Feel free to reach out at rampure@ucsd.edu.
