Saeed Mehraban earned his double major BSc degree in Electrical Engineering and Physics from Sharif University of Technology in Tehran, Iran. Afterwards, he began a PhD program in electrical engineering and computer science at MIT, under the supervision of Scott Aaronson and Aram Harrow. His research intersects on the concepts of approximate counting and quantum computing, and currently focuses on the complexity of computational problems that arise from intermediate-scale or noisy models of quantum computation.
