Stephanie Rosenthal is a senior at Carnegie Mellon University majoring in Computer Science.

Stephanie's initial research at CMU was on social robotics and led to two publications. More recently, she has done research on collaborative learning. She investigated potential interfaces for use with interactive whiteboards and designed and ran a set of experiments about issues in collaboration, which resulted in a first-authored publication.

Stephanie's interest in robotics goes back to high school. While completing her senior year of high school she also worked at the Naval Research Lab where she did research on social robotics. At CMU, Stephanie has been active in student government and is a student member of two curriculum review committees. She has been very involved in recruiting and maintaining female participation in computer science. Since her freshman year, Stephanie has been an active member of the Women@SCS program and has organized their Big Sister/Little Sister mentoring program.
