Judy L. Walker
Judy Leavitt Walker is an American mathematician. She is the Aaron Douglas Professor of Mathematics at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, where she chairs the mathematics department. Her research is in the area of algebraic coding theory.[1]
Walker graduated from the University of Michigan in 1990,[1] and went on to graduate studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, earning her Ph.D. in 1996 under the supervision of Nigel Boston.[1][2] She joined the University of Nebraska–Lincoln faculty in 1996, was promoted to full professor in 2006, and took up the Aaron Douglas Professorship in 2012.[1]
In 2012, Walker became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[3]
