Ames, Iowa – Carl K. Chang, professor and chair of computer science at Iowa State University, has been awarded his third IBM Faculty Award in summer 2009.

The IBM Faculty Awards is a competitive worldwide program intended to foster collaboration between researchers at leading universities worldwide and those in IBM research, development and services organizations, and to promote courseware and curriculum innovation to stimulate growth in disciplines and geographies that are strategic to IBM. Candidates must be nominated by an IBM employee with common interests who will serve as a liaison for the collaboration.

IBM, an industry leader in services computing, recently announced the establishment of a technology service delivery center near Dubuque, which makes this award a timely and mutually beneficial partnership between Chang, researchers at ISU, and the IBM Corporation.
