The following information is summarized in this abbreviated CV which may serve as a helpful template for your own CV.
Work experience 💼
Title | Institution/Company | Years |
---|---|---|
Lecturer in Materials Science and Engineering | Stanford University 🌴 | 2023–present |
Instructional Designer | Citrine Informatics 🍊 | 2019–2021 |
Name 📛
I go by “Enze” (typically pronounced “EN-zee,” but I’ll also respond to “ēnzé” if you know Chinese), so please feel free to address me as such in person and in email. It’s a little cringe to hear “Dr. Chen,” but I’ll live; just no “Dr. Enze” or “Professor Chen,” please.
Education 🤓
Prior to teaching at Stanford, I graduated in 2023 with my PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. I was co-advised by Prof. Mark Asta and Dr. Timofey Frolov, and my work was broadly in the domains of computational structural materials and MSE education. Specifically, I built tools to study:
- Antiphase boundary energies in Ni3Al-based alloys, the precipitate phase in nickel-based superalloys. [paper]
- Grain boundary phases in elemental metals, focusing on hexagonal close-packed titanium for lightweighting. [paper]
- Materials informatics education to train the next generation of scientists and engineers. [paper]
Phrased another way, I used computers to study metals, and I studied how students learn about materials with the help of computers. 💻
My PhD was primarily funded by the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship Program (NSF GRFP), which is a fantastic opportunity that I highly encourage you to apply for. You can find a list of my publications on my Google Scholar page. 🎓
And prior to that, I completed my BS (‘18) in Stanford MSE and my co-terminal MS in the Stanford Institute for Computational & Mathematical Engineering. I did research in the group of the late Prof. Evan Reed, supervised by now-Prof. Qian Yang, and was heavily involved in Stanford Splash. 🌊
