Since 1991, Dr. Dudukovic has taught a number of courses in Business Analytics, including Data Mining for Business Analytics, Management Science, Management Information Systems, Quantitative Methods & Dynamic Forecasting, Statistics and Computing. Her degrees include a B.S. in Technology, an M.S. in Economics and a Ph.D. in Statistics. Her long-term theoretical research interests include Non-Gaussian Time Series Modelling, Entropy Maximization and Information Theory. Since 1997, her empirical research interests cover the fields of Financial Modelling, Credit Spread Modelling, Stock Market GARCH and RV Volatility Forecasting, Machine Learning and HOC ARMA Modelling with MATLAB and EViews software. She has published numerous publications on Non-Gaussian Time Series Analysis and Volatility Forecasting in Forex Market, International Stock Markets and Crypto-currency Market. She has considerable private-sector experience in Management Information System Development. She has a particular interest in Educational Data Mining, Machine Learning and Deep Machine Learning methods. She is engaged in discovering the methods needed to trigger student research interest by including notions of creativity in philosophy, psychology and logic. She established and directed Franklin's Center for Quantitative Research (CQR) with the aim of achieving results worth presenting at professional international conferences. She is a member of the Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics, the American Statistical Association and the IEEC Computer Society.
