Professor Huynh received the
M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from the University of Saarland
(Germany) in 1977 and 1978, respectively, where he remained as a postdoctoral
research associate until 1982. From 1982 to 1983 he was a Visiting Assistant
Professor at the University of Chicago. He then spent three years as an
Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Iowa State University before joining
the Computer Science faculty at the University of Texas at Dallas as an
Associate Professor in 1986. Dr. Huynh was promoted to Full Professor in
1991. From 1997 through 2009 he served
as Head of the Computer Science Department, which grew significantly during his
tenure and has been one of the top five computer science degree producers in
the nation in the last several years. Professor Huynh is currently an Associate
Dean in the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science. He has
been a member of the Advisory Board of the Journal of Automata, Languages and
Combinatorics since 1996.
