About me
Chun-Hua Tsai, Ph.D.
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis (ISQA), College of Information Science & Technology, at the University of Nebraska at Omaha.
Before joining UNO, I was an assistant research professor at the College of Information Sciences and Technology, Penn State University, mainly working with Dr. John M. Carroll in the Collaboration and Innovation Laboratory. I obtained my Ph.D. in 2019 from the University of Pittsburgh, advised by Dr. Peter Brusilovsky.
