Professor Brij B. Gupta, one of Asia University’s foreign faculty members in the Computer Science and Information Engineering Department was selected as a "Highly Cited Researcher in Computer Science" by Clarivate, a global professional information service provider, in 2022. He is one of the world's top 0.1% scientists and the only scholar selected from Taiwan and India in the field of computer science in 2022. President Jeffrey J.P. Tsai of Asia University presented Professor Gupta with a special medal and a prize in recognition of his contributions to scientific research. The university also celebrated the official opening of the newly established "International Center for AI and Cyber Security Research and Innovations" (CCRI).

Professor Gupta is also among the top 2% of scientists in the world as selected by Stanford University. Asia University encourages outstanding specialists to conduct scientific research, to strengthen the influence of Asia University, and to guide students academically.

Professor Gupta pointed out that, in an age of increasingly digitized networking, the Internet not only provides greater intelligence to improve our quality of life, but also creates some new threats to our life as well. The newly established Asia University CCRI aspires to become a world-class research and development center in the field of computer science, as well as playing an important role in cyberspace security.

Professor Gupta stated that the center will conduct research on cyber risk, threat intelligence, attack detection, situational awareness, and other topics using data science and artificial intelligence. The possible research areas of the Center include risk management, innovation, information exchange, product development, collaboration with relevant parties, and cyber security. Furthermore, to upgrade the security in automation industries, the Center will start to recruit and train top researchers in the fields of artificial intelligence and cyber security.

Professor Gupta has published more than 450 papers, 25 books, and 10 patents in international journals and seminars. His publications have been cited over 15,000 times, and he also serves as the editor-in-chief of four journals. He has been a visiting scholar at many universities around the world (in the United States, the United Kingdom, India, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, Japan, Spain, Italy, etc.) and has frequent academic exchanges with international scholars. President Tsai hopes that the newly established Cyber Security Center can also cooperate with international scholars to promote the influence of AU in the world.
