He is engaged in interdisciplinary research at the intersection of software engineering and social computing. Bogdan explores large-scale software-related data using a mixture of quantitative and qualitative methods, to develop and validate theories about the processes involved in software engineering and computer-supported collaborative work. For example, he has recently been exploring questions about diversity and productivity in social coding environments like GitHub. Prior to joining CMU, Bogdan was a postdoctoral researcher at University of California, Davis. He received his PhD and MSc in Computer Science at Eindhoven University of Technology, both with cum laude distinction.
