Professor André van der Hoek Hosts UCI Visiting Distinguished Professor Marian Petre

ISR welcomes Prof. Marian Petre, of The Open University in the UK, who is spending two months this year (spread over 4 two-week visits) as a UCI Visiting Distinguished Professor. Recognized for her remarkable contributions to the psychology of programming and design practices in industry, Petre’s core focus while at UCI is a new book with her close collaborator, ISR Professor André van der Hoek. In addition, she is hosting a series of lunchtime advising sessions with graduate students and also mentoring and interacting with other faculty in ISR and the Informatics Department.
