In this episode, I’m joined by Lorrie Cranor, FORE Systems Professor, Computer Science and Engineering & Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU); Director, CyLab Usable Privacy and Security Laboratory; and Co-Director, of CMU's MSIT-Privacy Engineering Masters Program. We discuss the different tracks within the Privacy Engineering Program at CMU, privacy engineering hiring trends, the need for industry education, and Lorrie’s research outside of the classroom.

Lorrie explains how this next generation of privacy experts and engineers can work together to bring new architectures, innovations, and software to market. She describes the kind of hands-on work in which her students participate, including a capstone project sponsored by Meta that’s exploring ways the platform can integrate more privacy education into its UI/UX.
In addition, Lorrie shares her perspective on the job market for privacy engineers for recent grads and explains how CMU’s Certificate Program in Privacy Engineering aims to meet the high demand for experienced privacy experts with knowledge of privacy engineering concepts. We also get into her research on cookie banners and privacy “nutrition labels” for IoT devices.
