About me...
My name is Mihai Boicu [me high boy ku].
Mihai is the Romanian version for Michael or MiKaEl.
I like teaching which I regard as a joint
discovery process using Socratic methods, and I am currently working as an Assistant Professor of Information
Technology in the Applied Information Technology Department of
the Volgenau School of Information Technology and Engineering in George
Mason University.
I am also the Associate Director of the Learning Agents Center where I manage and perform research projects in various Artificial Intelligence areas, from basic research to prototyping and transitioning.
I am the father of two lovely girls, Alexandra and Andrea thanks to their mother, Cristina, who is also a very good researcher.
I like reading, listening to music and sometimes playing piano.
I like spending time outside, hiking, playing sports and traveling.
I am Christian-Orthodox and had the chance of great spiritual fathers who spent many years in communist prisons for their belief: Priest Constantin Voicescu and Priest Gheorghe Calciu. I am currently attending Saint Mary Orthodox Church.
