Huaxun Huang 黄华勋

Short Bio / 简介

I am an assistant professor at the School of Informatics (National Characteristic Demonstration Software School), Xiamen University. Prior to that, I received my PhD degree from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 2023, supervised by Prof. Shing-Chi Cheung. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering from Northeastern University in June 2017.

You are welcome to contact me via email.

我目前是厦门大学信息学院（国家特色化示范性软件学院）助理教授。在此之前，我于 2023 年在香港科技大学计算机科学与工程系获得博士学位，师从张成志（Shing-Chi Cheung）教授；2017 年 6 月毕业于东北大学软件工程专业，获学士学位。
