Background

About Muhammad Umer Shakeel

As a fourth-year Computer Engineering student at Illinois Institute of Technology, I am driven by the potential of technology to create meaningful change. My primary passion lies in Hardware Engineering, where I aim to blend my technical skills with practical experience to contribute to innovative solutions. Currently, I am working as a Research Assistant at Franklin Energy, where I am developing a low-cost steam trap monitoring solution using microcontrollers. My role involves optimizing operational efficiency by simulating steam trap performance through MATLAB and DSP algorithms, and integrating hardware design with LTSpice for thorough testing. This hands-on experience has deepened my understanding of embedded systems and real-time data processing, areas I am eager to explore further. My goal is to apply my knowledge and skills to real-world projects, particularly in hardware design, embedded systems, and energy efficiency. I am eager to explore various facets of computer engineering and electrical engineering to find where I can make the most significant impact. I am a motivated, curious, and collaborative learner who values innovation, diversity, and social responsibility.
