G. Ayorkor Korsah (wey dem know am before as G. Ayorkor Mills-Tettey) be Senior Lecturer for Computer Science den Robotics for Ashesi University for Ghana insyd.[1]
Ein Early life den education
[edit | edit source]Korsah grow up for Ghana den Naija, as kid, she dey biz say she wan be astronaut den engineer.[2][3]
Korsah major insyd engineering at Dartmouth College, wey she graduate summa cum laude insyd June 2003. She attend Carnegie Mellon University for ein doctoral work insyd computer science,[4] wey she obtain a PhD insyd 2011 for ein thesis: "Exploring bounded optimal coordination for heterogeneous teams with cross-schedule dependencies".[5]
Ein Career
[edit | edit source]Korsah be senior lecturer for computer science plus robotics for Ashesi University, private school for Ghana. Wey she dey teach AI, robotics, algorithms, plus programming.[6]
So say robotics education go spread for Africa, Korsah plus Ken Goldberg, robotics professor for University of California, Berkeley, dem two join body start African Robotics Network (AFRON) for 2012 insyd.[7] AFRON ein job be say make robotics education dey bee well well, plus e dey push all robotics people for Africa make dem link up do things together.[8] One of de first things AFRON do be say dem sponsor $10 robot design challenge wey IEEE Robotics and Automation Society join dem do. Dem give Korsah den Goldberg de 2013 Tribeca Disruptive Innovation Award secof how dem start de network plus de '$10 Robot Design' challenge dey do.[9][10]
You know Korsah dey BBC News dey talk 'bout how humans and machines go fit join forces work together better for future.[11]
