Research Interests:

Our current department has nine faculty members with a range of specialties. Because ours is a small, undergraduate-only program, the primary undertaking of a CIFellow at Harvey Mudd College would be teaching. Thus, we are seeking passionate teachers first and foremost. There will be opportunities (1) to co-teach introductory courses (2) to develop and deploy one or more advanced electives in an individual area of specialization and (3) work with students on (your own) research projects accessible to talented undergraduates.

Our curriculum also offers an unusual opportunity to co-advise a year-long “clinic” project, in which four undergraduates specify, design, and deliver a finished product to a sponsoring company. Because of this “clinic” program, software engineering is of particular interest to us.
