Augusta Maria "Mici" Teller (originally Schütz-Harkányi; 30 April 1909 – 4 June 2000)[1] was a Hungarian-American scientist and computer programmer, involved in the development of the Metropolis algorithm.

In 1924, Ede "Szuki" Schütz-Harkányi introduced Mici to his childhood friend, Edward Teller, who would become her future husband and an important scientist for the Manhattan Project.

[1] During 1932–1933, Mici spent two years at the University of Pittsburgh with a scholarship to study sociology and psychology earning her Masters in Personnel Work in 1933.

[5] In the late 1940s, the Teller family moved from Los Alamos, New Mexico to Chicago so they could work at Argonne National Laboratory.

She also was a co-author of the first paper introducing Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation, though the final code used in the publication was written in entirety by Arianna Rosenbluth.
