Prof. Araujo is seriously one of the worst professors in INFO department. He can't seem to make up his mind about whether to approach the course on the application side or theoretical side.

Resume

  • 2014

    I help business professionals to navigate a rapidly changing global technological industry environment. My teaching and training approach uses an interactive and friendly methodology where I rely extensively on insights distilled from a number of countries where I have worked and lived including China

    New Zealand

    South Korea

    and the United States. \n\nI have implemented a number of study abroad programs (Latin America and Asia) where students can observe first-hand the true meaning of being a global expert. As integral part of these programs

    we visit a large number of businesses that capture important cultural aspects that one needs to be aware when operating in these countries. \n\nAs a Professor

    I teach project capstone classes in both undergraduate and graduate programs. When teaching these classes my goal is to help students to enhance their consulting and problem solving skills. Students are encouraged to think outside the box and apply principles of emotional design and advanced IT tools when creating their business solution. Class approach mimics a case competition context.\n \nPrior to joining the academia

    I have held IT consulting and senior training position in a number of IT organizations for over 15 years. While at the university environment

    I have been fortunate to work for a number of high ranked university institutions such as The College of William and Mary (Ivy League school in the USA)

    Korea University (oldest institution in South Korea and usually ranked as on of the best in Asia)

    University of Canterbury in New Zealand

    and The University of Oklahoma.\n\nAs an IT developer and instructor I have used the following technologies: Basic
