Glory Justin, a graduate student in the ECSE Department, won the " Best Student Paper Award" at the IEEE International Conference on Power Systems and Electrical Technology (PSET), held in Tokyo Japan on August 5-8, 2024. Her paper titled "Graph Neural Networks for Power System Security Assessment" details how graph neural networks can be used to detect unstable operating conditions in the electric power grid.
Glory Justin received the Bachelor of Engineering degree in electrical and electronic engineering from Federal University of Technology Owerri, Imo State, Nigeria, in 2017 and the M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy New York, in 2022. She has done summer internships with Heliogen as an Engineering Intern in 2022 and GE Aerospace research as an Electric Machines and High Voltage Engineering Intern in 2023. She is currently pursuing the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY. Her research interests include power system stability and control, and machine learning. She is advised by Professor Santiago Paternain whose research focuses on controls and autonomy.
