Stephen Okwudili Ugwuanyi

I am currently in the second year of my PhD in the Centre for Dynamic Intelligent Communication of Electronic and Electrical Engineering Department at University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, United Kingdom. I am currently investigating the development of security within Industrial Internet of Things and Sensor Networks. Hope to provide real world results in emerging NB-IoT Networks for industrial applications.  

I have five-years teaching experience in the field of Electronic, Electrical and Computer Science. I am also an African Challenge Scotland tutor for a variety of secondary school science subjects.  

My main research interest is the security and privacy of the emerging Internet of Things; Sensor Networks; Telecommunication Networks and Digital Signal Processing. I am also interested in Incidence Response and Situation Awareness.

I am on the lookout to collaborate with companies and research/academic institutions,
