Graduates of the UTC I-O and Research Programs
Names are listed alphabetically by year of graduation for alumni who provide this information to the program coordinator. The date at the end of each listing is the date of the most recent update. This list was started on 1/25/03. Starting May 30, 2008 we encourage all current and former UTC I-O students and faculty to join our new UTC I-O LinkedIn group. This way your contact info will always be as up-to-date as you want it to be and visitors will also be able to see more info on your background and current interests. We feel this new tool will dramatically improve the networking that takes place within this amazing group.
To join us on 
all you have to do is click on this link and follow the instructions:
http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/106719/2C0D2F267B55
If you are unable or unwilling to create a LinkedIn profile for yourself and connect it to our UTC Program group then you may also make changes to the following limited list by emailing Chris Cunningham.
