Dr. Lewis joined SCU in 1975 where he is currently an Associate Professor of Computer Engineering.  He led the effort to establish the Computer Engineering department in 1988, and served as its first Chair until 2007.

Since 2004, Lewis has focused on computer science in the K-12 pipeline, raising more than $2.5M from NSF and private sources to provide summer camps, professional development for high school and middle school teachers, and improved computer science curricula for their students.

He is a founding member and a steering committee member of the Alliance for California Computing Education for Students and Schools that is working to improve California K-12 computer science education policy.
