Venkatesan Guruswami (born 1976) is a senior scientist at the
Miller Fellow, and then was a member of the faculty at the University of Washington from 2002 to 2009. His primary area of research is computer science, and in particular on error-correcting codes. During 2007–2008, he visited the Institute for Advanced Study as a Member of School of Mathematics. He also visited SCS at Carnegie Mellon University during 2008–09 as a visiting faculty. From July 2009 through December 2020 he was a faculty member in the Computer Science Department in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University

Recognition
Guruswami was awarded the 2002
list-decoding
algorithm) and is based on interpolation and factorization of polynomials over and its extensions.[citation needed]
He was an invited speaker in
Hyderabad on the topic of "Mathematical Aspects of Computer Science."[4]
Guraswami was one of two winners of the 2012 Presburger Award, given by the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science for outstanding contributions by a young theoretical computer scientist.[5] He was elected as an
IEEE Fellow in 2019,[7] and to the 2023 class of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society, "for contributions to the theory of computing and error-correcting codes, and for service to the profession".[8]
