Turner College Dean Deb Kidder announced this afternoon that Neal Rogers has retired from the TSYS School computer science faculty. While on the faculty, Rogers taught courses in COBOL, CICS, Database, software engineering, and robotics. His research interests included installing and testing different software simulation systems for robotics testing as budget limitations preclude purchasing much in the way of robotics hardware. Joining the TSYS School computer science faculty as an instructor for the 2024-25 academic year is Janice Canedo, a TSYS School alum who previously worked in software development at TSYS. Canedo's academic interests include game development, cybersecurity, cloud computing and software development.
Former Turner College student Tamara Todorova , now an associate professor of economics at American University in Bulgaria (AUB), recently published a study on corporate culture and strategy. Todorova earned an MBA from the Turner College in 1996 and then went on to earn a doctorate in international economics from the University of Economics - Varna in 2001. She has been on the faculty at AUB since August of 2000. Todorova's study, which appears in the current issue of the International Journal of Business Performance Management , investigates how corporate culture helps to economize on the transaction costs of internal organization. As she explains, the dimensions of corporate culture that assist in this task include increasing trust and reducing intrafirm opportunism. Todorova's study demonstrates that setting common goals and a common direction reduces the sizeable costs of internal organization. Tamara's prior research appears in Economics of Transition , International
