Bradley A. Moran (M'94) received the A.B. degree cum laude in mathematics from Yale University, New Haven, CT, in 1985, the S.M. degrees in mechanical engineering and in naval architecture and marine engineering, both in 1990, and the Ph.D. degree in ocean engineering in 1994, all from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge.

Prior to his work in data fusion, he has published in the fields of computational geometry and computer-aided design. From 1989 to 1992, he chaired the MIT Student Section of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers. In 1991, he was awarded the International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers Scholarship. He remains at MIT in the Sea Grant Underwater Vehicles Laboratory. Having completed a Post-Doctoral Fellowship, his current title is Research Engineer in which he directs software development for the Odyssey class AUV's and autonomous ocean sampling networks. His research interests include autonomous guidance, navigation, and control.

Dr. Moran is a member of the Alpha Lambda Delta and Sigma Xi as well as the IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society.
