Meet Dr. Pavia Bera, our newest Assistant Professor in CPE!

She works at the intersection of neuromorphic algorithms and hardware, designing brain-inspired algorithms and spintronic memory hardware to run them efficiently. Her work includes SPIMulator, a spintronic processing-in-memory simulator, and research on sparse neural networks and hardware-accelerated HTM systems.

Dr. Bera is an iREDEFINE Professional Development Award recipient and an NSF CyberTraining participant, with publications in IEEE, ACM TECS, and Neurocomputing.

Cal Poly's "Learn by Doing" philosophy and its emphasis on teaching alongside research drew her to Cal Poly. She says SLO is a nice bonus after years in Tampa! Outside of research, Dr. Bera stays active with regular workouts, and is a devoted cat parent to her two cats, Sheriff and Shane, who've settled into life in SLO with her.

She will be teaching CPE 3300 (Computer Architecture) and CPE 2300 (Computer Systems), and is excited about a new course she's been developing on efficient and scalable machine learning systems — bringing her hardware-aware ML research directly into the classroom.

Turning play into purpose!
Computer Engineering Students Noah Tran, Srinitya Choudary Doppalapudi, Jacob Nater and Audrey Hansell worked with Psychology students together in a cross-disciplinary project creating a collaborative puzzle platform that’s more than just a game; it’s a research tool.

By bringing people together, specifically older adults, to solve puzzles online, the project helps study cognition, social connection and loneliness, showing how something, simple and fun can drive meaningful scientific insights.

Meet Vincent Le!

A first-year CPE student and CPE 100 Mentee!

Who is your mentor?
My mentor is Alex Jefferies, a third year with industry experience.

What made you want to become aMentee with CPE?
I wanted to become a Mentee with CPE because I came into Cal Poly knowing that this school would best prepare me with industry experience, and I've been a big dreamer, aspiring to be ready to work at well-paying tech companies. In my first quarter, I wanted to get an internship as soon as possible, so I joined Mentoring with CPE to give me guidance to work towards that goal.

What do you enjoy most about being part of the mentorship community?
The most enjoyable part is how knowledgeable the mentors are in the community. My mentor specifically has organized meetings and resources for us to prepare for the upcoming career fair and resume reviews alongside how to be ahead of my class with CPE videos, 3rd year advice, and hobbies I should pursue to be a hirable candidate.

What are a few things you like to do outside of school and professional development?
Outside of classes, I'm involved with Hack4Impact and Cal Poly Racing FSAE as a developer and firmware engineer respectively. I'm an event coordinator intern for the Nikkei Student Union, a member of the Vietnamese Student Association, and a performer for the Lion Dancing Team at Cal Poly. I love trying out every new item on the menu around campus, playing video games with my roommates, and doing 2 AM walks to the off-campus Taco Bell.
