Associate Professor

Janyl Jumadinova

I design autonomous systems that improve quality of life. My research focuses on multi-agent robotics, environmental monitoring, and bridging the computer science education gap.

At Allegheny College (opens in a new tab), I teach courses in AI, robotics, and software engineering while leading student research collaborations that produce publishable results.

Autonomous Systems & Multi-Agent Robotics

My students and I build autonomous underwater robots that monitor water quality in Northwest Pennsylvania lakes, study how groups of AI agents should combine what they know, and run computing outreach programs for K-12 students.
