Mickens earned his undergraduate degree in computer science at the Georgia Institute of Technology and his master's degree and doctorate from the University of Michigan. Originally he thought he would follow in his father's footsteps and become a professor, he said in an interview for Microsoft blog Technet. However, after interning twice with Microsoft, he decided to work for MSR's Distributed Systems Group because \"It's hipper than a university and actually more laid back,\" he said.\n
