Andrew J. Ko (iSchool,
CSE
adjunct) employs a mixture of social science methodology
and technical prowess in the study and support of programmers
as information workers in need of better tools, particularly
for answering "why" questions.
He received a Ph.D. in Human-Computer Interaction from Carnegie Mellon University in 2008.
