Spet 11, 2025
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Abhronil Sengupta, the Joseph R. and Janice M. Monkowski Career Development Associate Professor in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at Penn State, has been selected to receive the 2025 Ernest S. Kuh Early Career Award from the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). Sengupta will be formally recognized at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) 2026, taking place July 25-29, 2026 in Long Beach, CA.
Established by IEEE CEDA, the Ernest S. Kuh Early Career Award honors individuals who have made substantial contributions to the field of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) during the early stages of their careers. Sengupta is recognized for his contributions to the domain of hardware-software co-design of neuromorphic computing systems.
Sengupta’s research focuses on developing energy-efficient and scalable neuromorphic architectures that bridge brain-inspired computing and emerging device technologies. His work has advanced the integration of algorithmic and architectural co-design with novel materials and devices, fostering innovations across both theoretical and experimental domains.
In addition to his primary affiliation in the School of EECS, Sengupta is affiliated with the Materials Research Institute at Penn State.
