Biography

Carolyn Brodie joined the Department of Computer Science as an Assistant Professor in the fall of 2018. Before this she was an adjunct professor in the Computer Science department at Simpson for seven years. She received her B.S. degree from Iowa State University in Computer Engineering and her M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She worked for IBM both as a Research Staff Member at the IBM Watson Research Center in New York and as a software developer and software development manager in IBM’s Federal Systems Division in Maryland. Her research interests are in the area of Human Computer Interaction.In particular she is interested in how to leverage emerging technologies to design systems that solve real user problems in real-world domains.
