Wang's research interests center on RF/AMX Integrated Circuits (IC) and System-on-a-Chip (SoC), Integrated Design-for-Reliability (DfR) for ICs and Systems, 3D Heterogeneous Integration (HI) of Technologies, Devices and Circuits, IC CAD and Modeling, Emerging Nano Devices and Circuits, and LED-based Visible Light Communications (VLC) and Positioning (VLP). His research has been sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the global microelectronics industries.

Wang's teaching interests cover microelectronics and ICs. He prefers to prepare students with industry-ready skills by challenging them with application-oriented problems and familiarizing them with industrial design methodology and tools.

Wang's academic credits include two books, 320+ peer-reviewed papers and 16 U.S. patents. Wang is recipient of IEEE J. J. Ebers Award (2022). His other awards and honors include IEEE Electron Devices Society Distinguished Service Award (2019), the CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation, the Sigma Xi Award for Excellence in University Research, Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Research (UCR), J. William Fulbright Specialists roaster, and Best Student Paper Award of IEEE Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits Symposium (RFIC).
