Our department wishes congratulations to Dr. Robin Pottathuparambil on his new journey with Texas A&M University and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Dr. Robin has been a prominent leader of our Computer Engineering program for over 10 years; serving as Program Coordinator for our Undergraduate (Bachelors in CE) program, and advising Senior Design groups on their innovative, engineering projects. Dr. Robin’s impact on our student body can be seen through the alumni that continuously visit the department to give talks, or to simply say hello and catch up.

During the summer, Dr. Robin would lead Imagine IT and Camp Learn AI. Both very popular summer camps in the North Texas community for their free, interactive learning lessons on coding and programming to Elementary and Middle School students across the area.

Thank you, Dr. Robin. Your efforts and dedication have both left a mark on Computer Engineering at UNT that will stand for years to come. You will always be welcome back at Discovery Park anytime.
