Lin Wang, PhD, is a professor of accounting at MSU Texas' Dillard College of Business. She is very interested in adopting emerging technologies such as machine learning to accounting research. Her current research uses textual analysis on corporate narrative disclosures in annual reports and conference calls.
Dr. Wang teaches Accounting Information Systems. In this class, she also helps her students become QuickBooks certified. QuickBooks is a widely used accounting software by small businesses. She teaches the students the principles of accounting while helping them understand how to use this software.
She says that the best part of teaching is interacting with students. "I always encourage my students to ask questions. Their questions also inspire my thinking."
In her free time, she enjoys watching documentaries, reading books, and traveling.
