Dr. Ashiq Sakib joined Florida Poly as an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in August 2019. His research interest lies in the field of Asynchronous Digital Design and Optimization. He has been conducting research in this field for about seven years. In this time, he has gathered diverse expertise spanning the areas of asynchronous logic design, circuit and architecture level optimization, error-resilience, and formal verification. His doctoral research focused on formal modeling and developing formal verification methods for different Quasi-Delay Insensitive (QDI) asynchronous paradigms.

Sakib has taught Digital Logic Design, Embedded OS, Embedded Control, and Computer Architecture and Organization at Florida Poly since fall 2019.

Before joining Florida Poly, Sakib worked as a research assistant, as well as teaching assistant for courses on Digital Logic Design, Advanced Digital Design, Embedded Systems, Computer Organization, and Electronics, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Dakota State University from 2014-19. He also served as a guest lecturer for multiple undergraduate- and graduate-level courses, such as Digital Logic Design and Computer Aided Verification.

Sakib has also served as a reviewer for reputed journals, such as IEEE TVLSI, MDPI Electronics, MDPI Designs, MDPI Mathematics, MDPI Machines, Journal of Circuits, Systems, and Computers etc., and for technical IEEE conferences, such as ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC), International Symposium on VLSI (ISVLSI), Mid-West Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS), International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS), IEEE IEMTRONICS etc.

He is a member of the honor society of Phi-Kappa-Phi (PKP) and IEEE- Eta-Kappa-Nu (HKN). He was also a Graduate Studies Senator in the Student Government at North Dakota State University.
