Bo Tu, PhD

I am an assistant professor at the University of North Dakota, starting in January 2026, with a specialization in the resilience of distribution power systems. My research focuses on two main areas: 1) Enhancing system resilience against disruptions caused by extreme weather and cyber-physical attacks. I design strategies specifically aimed at helping low-income communities regain power access during outages. 2) Safeguarding critical assets and edge devices within cyber-physical power systems through specialized protection algorithms, thereby reinforcing the overall resilience of these systems.
