About Me
My name is Yushun (Oliver) Chen. I graduated from Duke University with a Master's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a concentration in software development. I went to UW-Madison for undergrad where I triple-majored in B.S. Computer Sciences, Statistics, and Applied Mathematics. I was also in the Letter & Sciences Honors Program. Here is my resume and here is my course guide of all the courses that I have taken. For future research interests, I am particularly interested in software engineering and HCI.
Education
-
Duke University
Sep 2022 - May 2024
M.S. ECE
GPA: 3.8/4.0
Life is sometimes running in circles. I fell in love with Duke since my high school days in Charlotte, NC. I am so glad that I can come back to a familiar state and eventually become a student at Duke.
Duke's rigorous academic standards and beautiful campus attract me the most. I visited Duke in 2018 when I was in high school and took the picture to the right. I remember clearly walking on the campus and I have to say that time flies!

UW-Madison has everything that I wanted for a university: high academic standards, sports, beautiful scenaries, and favorite people around.
This is my own course guide at UW-Madison, which consists of all the courses that I have taken and all the credit that I have earned in college.
I am also active outside of classrooms. I worked at Liz's Market which is a dining hall on campus. This was my first job in the United States. My second job is being a note-taker for the McBurney Disability Resource Center.

Charlotte Catholic High School
Aug 2016 - May 2019
GPA: 4.5/4.8
First Honors (All Semesters)
I went to Charlotte Catholic High School in Charlotte, North Carolina for three years. It was a religious school and I was exposed in the environment of Catholicism ✞.
The school also provided various AP courses that I took a lot of advantages from. Charlotte is a beatiful place and I still miss it so much after I graduated from high school, especially the weather.
I love cities that have both an NBA team (Charlotte Hornets) and an NFL team (Carolina Panthers).

Hubei Yichang Yiling High School | 湖北省宜昌市夷陵中学
Sept 2015 - Jun 2016
It was an amazing year of high school in China. There were many unforgettable memories with some of my favorite people in life.
The experience of spending one year in a rigorous Chinese high school has built solid foundations for my academic abilities, especially science subjects such as math, physics, and chemistry
The campus is large and beautiful. The TV series《时光与你都很甜》on Mango TV was shot at my high school.
