Dr. Alan Jamieson is a teaching professor at Khoury College of Computer Sciences’ Portland campus, as well as in the Roux Institute at Northeastern University. His research interests include broadening participation in computer science, K-12 computational thinking and data science education integration, and combinatorial graph theory. Jamieson has spent his career introducing computer science to students with varying backgrounds and experiences with technology – including cool and innovative pedagogical techniques whenever he can.
Before joining Northeastern, Jamieson was a professor at St. Mary’s College of Maryland for 14 years, which included serving as the computer science program coordinator and later, chair of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. At St. Mary’s, he coordinated the development of a liberal arts focused data science program, and worked to bring a multi-disciplinary fabrication lab to the college.
He received his doctoral degree in computer science from Clemson University. He is a recipient of the National Center for Women and Information Technology’s Undergraduate Research Mentorship Award, and he has been recognized for his service as a reviewer of the Aspirations in Computing Awards. In 2019, he was selected as a member of Amazon’s inaugural AWS Educate Cloud Ambassador Program for his work integrating cloud computing concepts into the liberal arts classroom. In his free time Jamieson is a world-class consumer of coffee and donuts. He also has an eclectic non-CS background, including working as a jazz DJ in New Orleans and as a theatre kid for the Springer Opera House, the state theatre of Georgia.
