If you're interested in joining the lab, apply to the CUE or Transportation Engineering departments and mention Eugene Vinitsky in your application. I can also co-supervise students in the CSE department at Tandon. The primary thing I look for in students is evidence of serious motivation; if you've done something that shows unusual passion you'll stand out. I can't give you an example but you know it when you see it. Additionally, if you think we have really close research interests, send an email but there's no guarantee you'll get a response as we get a lot of emails!
One thing to note, the lab highly values diversity and inclusion. We are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all members across gender, religion, race, etc. We expect a corresponding committment of everyone who joins the lab to create a space where everyone feels welcome and supported.
