To Whom It May Concern:
I am pleased to recommend Mr. Mehrshad Eskandarpour for admission to the Master’s program in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I have known Mehrshad as his instructor and research supervisor during his B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, and I have also worked closely with him as a co-author on multiple research manuscripts.
Mehrshad’s bachelor’s project, titled “Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach to QoS-Aware Load Balancing in 5G Cellular Networks under User Mobility and Observation Uncertainty,” showcases both technical depth and research maturity. He selected a challenging and timely problem at the intersection of wireless networks and machine learning, designed a clear methodology, and executed it with care—demonstrating strong skills in problem formulation, experimental design, and critical analysis of results. His written reports were precise and well-structured, and his presentations were clear and data-driven.
Our collaboration has already resulted in six manuscripts, two published and four currently under review, reflecting his productivity, discipline, and ability to work in a team. In our research workflow, Mehrshad consistently takes initiative: he surveys literature efficiently, implements and tests ideas reliably, and turns around revisions quickly and accurately. When I ask for additional analyses or improvements, he delivers high-quality results on short timelines without sacrificing rigor.
Mehrshad also served as a Teaching Assistant for my Signals and Systems and Communication Systems courses. In that role, he supported students effectively and handled technical questions with clarity and patience. He is organized, dependable, and attentive to detail—qualities that make him an asset in both teaching and research environments.
Beyond technical competence, what distinguishes Mehrshad is his motivation and professional work ethic. He is proactive, responsive, and focused. He asks good questions, incorporates feedback constructively, and maintains a high standard of integrity and thoroughness in all tasks.
Given his strong foundational knowledge, demonstrated research capability, and excellent attitude, I recommend Mehrshad Eskandarpour strongly for your Master’s program.
