About Andrew

Andrew Shallue is Professor and Chair of the Department of Computer Science at Illinois Wesleyan University, a position he has held since his appointment to the faculty in Fall 2009. He earned a B.A. from Gustavus Adolphus College and a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2007. Shallue's research focuses on algorithmic number theory and its applications to cryptography, particularly in the areas of pseudoprimes, Carmichael numbers, and probabilistic tests for primality involving liar counts and Frobenius pseudoprimes. His contributions include developing efficient algorithms for tabulating these structures, which have practical implications for cryptographic protocols and number-theoretic computations.
