Jason earned a Ph.D. in Applied Anthropology, a Master of Public Health in Environmental Health, a graduate certificate in GIS, and a B.A. in Classics, so he brings a diverse set of experiences and interdisciplinary perspectives to the position. While much existing research computing work at Swarthmore has focused on the natural sciences and engineering, we welcome conversations with faculty from all disciplines to explore how additional resources could support their research and teaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you or your department would like to meet with Jason, please email him at jsimms1@swarthmore.edu<\/a> or schedule a time at calendly.com\/jlsimms<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
