Georgia Tech Grads land Junior Faculty Spots
Congratulations to recent Robotics Ph.D. graduate Maya Cakmak and 2010 CS Ph.D. graduate Michael Kaess for their recent appointments. Maya, whose advisor at Tech was Andrea Thomaz, just started as an Assistant Professor in the CSE department at the University of Washington. Michael was my own student before doing a research scientist stint with John Leonard at MIT, and has just accepted a Research Assistant Professor in the Robotics Institute at my own alma mater, Carnegie Mellon University.
