Andrew McNutt

Post Doc in HCI / Visualization

I’m hiring this cycle! Check out this page for details!

I’m an assistant professor of Computer Science at the University of Utah in the Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute (SCI) and Kahlert School of Computing. I lead the HAVOC (Human and Visualization Oriented Computing) Lab, where we develop tools and theories that help us do knowledge-centered work more safely. I am the receipt of Johanna Beyer EuroVis Early Career Award, a Siebel Scholarship, as well as a number of paper awards at top visualization and HCI venues.

I’m interested in Human Computer Interaction, Visualization, and Programming Interfaces. This tangle of interests leads me to work on a range of different domains. Lately, I’ve been excited about Visualization systems, Interfaces for programming, Visualization theories, and Critical/sociotechnical perspectives. Connecting these domains is an interest in “polite” systems, that is tools that support complex assistance while still allowing you to maintain agency. More broadly, I am a fan of deserts, zines, and bicycles.

Before my current position, I was a Post Doc at University of Washington with the Interactive Data Lab. Before that I did my Ph.D. at UChicago CS where I was advised by Ravi Chugh. During my Ph.D. I was lucky to intern at Tableau Research and Microsoft Research.
