William Michael

My background is in the test and development of fixed-wing aircraft and associated sensor systems. Before joining the UCCS Data Analytics and Systems Engineering (DASE) faculty, I was the Systems Engineer for a classified satellite program, a military officer, and an Engineering Test Pilot/Program Manager for a major defense contractor. In the DASE program, we use the techniques of systems engineering and data analytics to learn how we can understand complex data and use this knowledge to engineer systems to exploit this data. My academic interests include computer vision, Bayesian probability and the development of hardware architectures to solve complex problems. In my spare time, I enjoy running, flying, and spending time with my family.
