Hello. My name is Dat Tien Nguyen and I am a PhD student in Computer Science Department, The University of Iowa.
My academic advisor is Professor and Chair James Cremer. My research interest is Graphics and Virtual Environments. For more details, please click here.
Before coming to The University of Iowa, I have completed my Bachelor degree in Faculty of Information Technology, Hanoi University of Technology in Vietnam. My Bachelor degree is in Software Engineering.
Sport is one of my favorite things to do when I have free time. I enjoy playing badminton, swimming and billiards. On Fall 2006 I was the Champion of Billiards Intramural Tournament of The University of Iowa. Playing guitar is also one of my hobbies. I have been playing guitar since 2001. Now I don't have much time to practice, but I played a lot when I was in undergraduate program. I have performed few times in my guitar class, but not in any big event. If you are interested, click here to see me playing "Natalia". (I made this video to celebrate International Women's Day in 2007).
I am also pursuing a Master degree in Department of Actuarial Science, The University of Iowa. If you are familiar with Actuarial Science, you should have heard about The University of Iowa. It is among top ranking universities in the US. I don't know which profession I will do in the future, but I enjoy learning Finance and Business.
