People
In the USC Mork Family Department, people are the heart of our community.
We pride ourselves on our award-winning faculty members, resourceful staff and talented student pool.
Our people are what make us a strong and unique department within the USC Viterbi School and why we have adopted a phrase in that same spirit: "MORK ON!!!"
