Marina Moskowitz
When Marina Moskowitz arrived at Northeastern University in 2014, she was undecided about her major. Although she knew she wanted to study business, she also wanted to explore her other passions. The combined majors program at Northeastern, which offered her the flexibility to pursue two disciplines, played a crucial role in her decision to attend the university.

Chris Paul
Eleven different times, Chris Paul has either co-founded a startup or joined on the ground floor. And whether it was online media or rowing machines or an internet-enabled basketball hoop, his role has largely remained the same: to build, operationalize, and manage the software team that would make good on the company’s vision.

Ron Williams
Ronald J. Williams is a retired professor at Northeastern’s Khoury College of Computer Sciences and one of the founding pioneers of neural networks. Today’s neural network platforms such as ChatGPT can trace their origins to his seminal paper, “Learning representations by back-propagating errors” with David E. Rumelhart and Geoffrey E. Hinton.

Wayne Duso and Brecka Fetzer
If you introduce a problem to six people from roughly the same background, you often receive six variants of roughly the same solution, says Wayne Duso. But if you give the same problem to six people with wildly different backgrounds, the interplay between their varied perspectives will create ideas you’ve never dreamed of, and you get something much better.

Up until eight years ago, Khoury College 40 for 40 honoree Greg Waters wouldn’t have described himself as an involved alumnus. He’d barely had time to be involved back when he was a student; when Waters graduated in 1989 with a master’s degree in computer science, he was juggling a recent promotion, a new house, and a new baby.
