2006 Outstanding Female Undergraduate Award Runner-Up

Susanna Ricco is a senior at Harvey Mudd College, with a joint major in Computer Science and Mathematics.

Susanna has pursued two independent areas of research. Working for two summers at Sandia National labs, she has created a system for adjusting a detailed model of an aerodynamic shape so that it closely matches observed vibrational data. She surpassed all expectations by creating a fully automatic system. At Harvey Mudd Susanna was the organizational and technical lead of the four-person team that created Harvey Mudd's entry into AAAI's 2005 robot competition. This robot won the competition even though it was an order of magnitude cheaper than any other entry and all of the code was written from scratch by the team members.

Susanna has received scholarships from Lockheed Martin and Akamai. She is strongly involved in the student chapter of the ACM. In addition to her computer science interests, Susanna holds an FCC amateur radio license and is active in public service and emergency communications.
