  • Lisa G. Huettel received a BS degree in Engineering Science from Harvard University in 1994. She earned her MS and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Duke University in 1996 and 1999, respectively. From 1999 until 2001, Dr. Huettel was a Research Associate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University, followed by a year as an Assistant Research Professor. In 2002, Dr. Huettel became an Assistant Professor of the Practice in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Duke University and is currently an Associate Professor of the Practice. Her current research interests are focused on the application of statistical signal processing to remote sensing, engineering education, and curriculum and laboratory development.
