Welcome Rohit Singh and Ayesha Siddika Nipu, both lecturers in the computer science department.

Singh works at the intersection of mathematics and computer science.  His work involves designing computationally efficient algorithms to derive meaningful information from big datasets. This semester, he is teaching “Algorithm Design & Analysis,” “Fundamentals of Computer Graphics,” “Data Structure and Algorithms,” and “Scientific Data Visualization.”

He holds a master’s degree from the University of Florida and a PhD from the University of Cincinnati.

Nipu comes from UW-Platteville, where she taught undergraduate courses. At the College of Engineering & Applied Science, she is teaching a variety of programming and software engineering courses, from sophomore to graduate levels, with a strong focus on C++ and Java.

Her research interest includes the use of artificial intelligence for natural language processing in healthcare applications. She earned her master’s degree in computer science at Missouri State University with a graduate certificate in data science. Before moving to the U.S., she was a software developer in Bangladesh.
