Urs, a vice-dean of the college, is interested in everything related to
technology. More specifically, he has been studying and researching the
way in which public institutions employ new technologies, the changes
that the new social networks brought about in communication, the
opportunities provided by "big data" and the way in which visualising
statistical data can help decelerate social trends. He has a PhD in
online communication, to which he added an internship in the United
States. He teaches courses related to e-Government, to the use of new
technologies, and to online communication. He is actively involved in
public institutions' digitization projects, both at the level of the
city of Cluj-Napoca, as well as at a national level. E-mail: tina.jukic@fu.uni-lj.si
