I ordered the book on the strength of The Last Lecture. This entry however is no more than a very small compilation of his professor notes on how to be a successful grad student. Its relevance to anyone else is limited.

Randolph Frederick ("Randy") Pausch (October 23, 1960 - July 25, 2008) was an American professor of computer science, human-computer interaction and design at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.


He was born in Baltimore, Maryland and grew up in Columbia, Maryland.

Pausch received his bachelor's degree in computer science from Brown University in 1982 and his PhD in computer science from Carnegie Mellon University in August 1988. Pausch later became an associate professor at the University of Virginia, before working at Carnegie Mellon University as an associate professor.

He gave his "The Last Lecture" speech on September 18, 2007 at Carnegie Mellon. Pausch conceived the lecture after he learned that his previously known pancreatic cancer was terminal.




The talk was modeled after an ongoing series of lectures where top academics are asked to think deeply about what matters to them, and then give a hypothetical "final talk", with a topic such as "what wisdom would you try to impart to the world if you knew it was your last chance?"


The talk was later released as a book called The Last Lecture, which became a New York Times best-seller.
