Melody holds a B.A. in Computer Science with a minor in Business Administration from The University of Texas at Austin (1980), and the M.S. of Information and Computer Science from Georgia Tech (1988). She expects to complete her PhD in Spring 1998 from Georgia Tech in the joint areas of Human-Computer Interface and Software Engineering, with a minor in Postsecondary Education.
Prior to Tech, she worked for 9 years in industry developing real-time embedded systems, secure operating systems, networking, and compilers. Companies included Texas Instruments, Sperry, and National Advanced Systems (a subsidiary of National Semiconductor).

The Real World Lab is a Software Engineering Practicum in which students implement real projects for real customers. For information on current projects or registering for the course, check out the web site.
CS 3302 - Introduction to Software Engineering
I will be teaching CS3302 fall quarter 1997. 3302 is the introductory class to the Software Engineering course series and is the prerequisite for the Real World Lab. To check out current course information, click here.
CS 1501 - Introduction to Computing
CS1501 is CoC's introductory class in computing, teaching the basics of algorithms, data structures, applications, and computing theory. To get more information, click here.
I am a member of the CCI Southeast Regional Board of Directors, and we are currently working towards raising funds for a new CCI training center in our region. For information on the CCI Southeast region, check out the Southeast Region website.
I have been fortunate enough to raise two puppies for CCI so far, and hope to start on a third soon. For information on this program and pictures of my puppies, and also for the ADA Accessibility guidelines, check my local CCI website.
