Professional Activities

Miguel I. Aguirre-Urreta is an associate professor in the Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics, College of Business, at Florida International University, and the Director of Doctoral Programs for the College. Before joining FIU, he was on the faculty at Texas Tech University and DePaul University. Miguel received his Ph.D. in Information Systems from the University of Kansas, and his MBA in Information Systems and Finance from the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University. His undergraduate degree is in public accounting from the Universidad de Buenos Aires, in Argentina. Before entering academia, he was an auditor with Arthur Andersen and an external reporting analyst with Movicom Bellsouth. Miguel is interested in quantitative research methods, computer self-efficacy, human–computer interaction, technology acceptance and diffusion, and data science. He is also a past chair of the AIS Special Interest Group on Human-Computer Interaction. His research has appeared or is forthcoming at MIS Quarterly, Information Systems Research, Communications of the AIS, Research Synthesis Methods, IEEE Software, Measurement, and The DATA BASE for Advances in Information Systems, among others.
