Monica Anderson

Monica Anderson is an assistant professor in the computer science department at The University of Alabama. Her research focuses on distributed autonomous systems that enable search, rescue and reconnaissance applications in unknown, complex environments. She is also dedicated to making both robotics and computer science accessible to everyone through novel programming interfaces. She is the creator of PREOP, providing robotics experiences through object-based programming, which allows computer science novices to program robots graphically using an intuitive object-based interface.

Dr. Anderson graduated from The University of Minnesota in 2007. In 2006, Monica was awarded a SMART fellowship. In 2008, she received the 2008 UPE Excellence in Instruction award. In both 2008 and 2009, she co-chaired the IJCAI/AAAI Robotics Workshop and Exhibition and is co-chair of the 2010 AAAI Robotics Workshop and Exhibition in Atlanta, Georgia. She is also the principal investigator of research grants totaling over $800,000.
