Report summary

Pennsylvania State University Department of Electrical Engineering in 2021-2023 reads as a 34-PI network with 12 internal PI collaborations. The dominant subject mix is Engineering as the leading field (43% of slots across 29 PIs; 29 labels), Electrical and Electronic Engineering as the leading subfield (17% of slots across 13 PIs; 13 labels), and Advanced Memory and Neural Computing as the leading topic (5% of slots across 5 PIs; 5 labels). That is of concern for a 34-PI roster; the strongest pairings may be carrying much of the visible collaboration. The leading PI names are Saptarshi Das (32.6 weighted works; Advanced Memory and Neural Computing, 2D Materials and Applications). The most visible ties are Derrick Butler and Aida Ebrahimi (10 shared works, weight 7.8). The leading breakdown groups are group 1 with 5 PIs, 4 internal connections, weight 4.3, around Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Materials Chemistry, Artificial Intelligence, led by Saptarshi Das, Swaroop Ghosh, Shengxi Huang.
