"Joining Sofia University is an exciting opportunity to focus on offering programs that students want both for career advancement and personal growth. Sofia University uniquely acknowledges that at one level 'everything is personal'."
About John Lemmon, Ph.D.
My professional practice, as well as my academic work, has been focused on mediating. Mediation calls upon psychological awareness (as well as business and technical skills) to reach agreements within the context of families, communities, in the workplace, or between nations. I taught students and trained business, law, and mental health professionals in mediation for many years.
I was founding editor-in-chief of Mediation Quarterly (Jossey-Bass/Wiley), wrote Family Mediation Practice (Simon & Schuster) and co-wrote Social Work & the Law with Donald Brieland (West). My latest chapter in the Social Worker's Desk Reference (Oxford University Press), "Mediation & Conflict Resolution", includes a section about online dispute resolution. Psychology, business, computer science, and online options-these are all aspects of the programs offered at Sofia.
It is a pleasure to work with President Bemski and everyone at Sofia as we focus on programs for our students.

"I am honored to be the Program Chair for the Master of Science in Computer Science program. Having been with the program since its inception, I am eager to help the program grow and blossom into a shining star in Silicon Valley. "
Moving Humanity Forward One Line of Code at a Time
Our unique program exposes students to all facets of computer science, including theoretical, applied, and transformative aspects. This "whole computing" concept prepares our graduates for the most challenging careers in the computer science and information technology industries.
With Sofia University's prime location within Silicon Valley, our students have many unique opportunities and access to the best computing resources in the world. Along with our location, we have cutting-edge courses and concentrations that are in high demand in the computing industry, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, bio-computing, robotics computing, cyber security, transformative computing, and quantum computing. We also have the first drone computing program in the world, including our Master's degree concentration and the Professional Drone Computing certificate.
We are continuing to grow as a program, and have students from all over the world attending our master's degree and certificate programs. Our new Computing Innovation club (see below) explores the cutting-edge of computer science, and exposes our students to the latest computing trends in Silicon Valley. Our drone computing program allows students to learn drones from the ground up, including building, programming, and flying the systems, as well as evaluating their flight and improving their design. Our internship programs immerse our students directly into the heart of Silicon Valley.
The computer science program at Sofia is unique, challenging, and state-of-the-art. We are helping to move humanity forward one line of code at a time. I am happy to be a part of this innovative and transformative program!
