William Theisen

Assistant Teaching Professor - University of Notre Dame


A huge ultimate frisbee fan who grew up in a town with two stop-lights, I am now a first year teaching professor in the department of computer science and engineering. I recieved my PhD in Computer Vision in 2024 as a member of the Computer Vision Research Lab at the University of Notre Dame. I was advised by Dr. Walter Scheirer and also worked very closely with Dr. Tim Weninger. My current area of research is political memes (no that's not a joke). In addition to being a "dank memer" I also enjoy playing soccer, reading, working in my garden, and designing amateur board games!
