Non-EECS Nonfaculty Doctor's Thesis Supervisors

This list, maintained by the EECS Graduate Office, is one of three intended to help department graduate students and undergraduates find research supervisors. The other two lists are of faculty research supervisors and of those authorized to supervise master's theses. Office addresses, telephone numbers, Internet addresses, and personal home-page URLs of those listed below are available from the MIT Directory or the on-line MIT Directory.

A description of who is authorized to supervise theses or projects at various levels appears in a page devoted to research supervisors.

Graduate Areas. For purposes of administering the department doctoral program, faculty are loosely affiliated with one or more of six Graduate Areas. The Area chairmen or co-chairmen are listed in a discussion of research supervisors.

Approved Doctor's Thesis Supervisors

The following members of the research staff, departmental affiliates, and faculty from other departments have been approved by the department Committee on Graduate Students as both Ph.D. and Master's thesis supervisors.
