Ph.D. in electrical engineering, Carnegie Mellon University; M.S. in electrical engineering, Carnegie Mellon University; B.S. in computer engineering, Villanova University
Nicholas O'Donoughue is an engineer at RAND. He is a radar signal processing expert with experience in algorithm development and systems analysis of airborne and spaceborne ISR systems, particularly concerning electronic warfare.
From 2012-2015, O'Donoughue was employed in the Airborne Radar Systems and Techniques Group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, during which time he co-taught several iterations of the Build Your Own Radar courses at MIT and designed and taught a course on Radar Signal Processing at Tufts University. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE, including the IEEE Signal Processing Society and the IEEE Control Systems Society, and member of both Eta Kappa Nu and Tau Beta Pi.
O'Donoughue received a B.S. in Computer Engineering from Villanova University in 2006. He completed his M.S. and PhD in Electrical & Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University in 2008 and 2011, respectively.
