He has prior industrial experience at Bell Laboratories (1979-1982) and, while a student, at IBM (Summer 1977, Summer 1978). He was a visiting research associate at Carnegie Mellon University (1985-1986).

Dr. Midkiff directs the Integrated Research and Education in Advanced Networking (IREAN) program at Virginia Tech and served as the principal investigator of an NSF Integrated Graduate Education and Research Training (IGERT) grant that created the IREAN program. Dr. Midkiff is the Education and Training department editor and a founding member of the editorial board of IEEE Pervasive Computing magazine. Dr. Midkiff is also a member of the statewide advisory board for Virginia's Commonwealth Graduate Engineering Program (CGEP), a multi-university distance learning program.

Dr. Midkiff received the B.S.E. degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Duke University (1979), the M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University (1980), and the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Duke University (1985). He is a Senior Member of the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), a member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and a member of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE). His research interests include wireless networks, mobile systems, and pervasive computing.
