Biography

Thomas Wiegart received the B.Sc. degree (with distinction) and the M.Sc. degree (with high distinction) in electrical engineering from Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2015 and 2018, respectively.

He is currently working towards the doctoral degree at the TUM Institute for Communications Engineering under the supervision of Prof. Gerhard Kramer. His research interests include information theory, channel coding, probabilistic shaping, and optical communications.

Mr. Wiegart was the recipient of the Walter Gademann Price in 2016 for his Bachelor thesis, and he received an Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award from the student representatives of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, TUM in 2020.
