Ying Zhang

I am currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Oklahoma State University (OSU), Stillwater, OK, U.S. I received my Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering at Southern Methodist University (SMU), Dallas, TX, U.S. Before joining OSU, I was a postdoctoral research associate in the U.S. DOE's Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) with the Interdisciplinary Science Department, an Assistant Professor at Montana State University (MSU), and a Visiting Scholar in Cornell University. My research is rooted in power system situational awareness via optimization, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) to develop grid-based interdisciplinary research in climate science, data science, and socio-economics.

Research Interests:

Energy and Power Systems, Renewable Integration, AI for Engineering, Smart Grid, Grid Resilience and Equity Development Against Climate Change.
