Short bio:
Adam Altăr started his university career in 2006, as a university assistant in the School of Computer Science for Business Management of the Romanian-American University. His teaching activities (at the level of bachelor’s and master’s studies), as well as those of scientific research, are related especially to the fields of “Computer Science” and “Applied Mathematics in Economics”. He is the author of over 40 academic works (scientific articles, books, textbooks), participated in over 15 international conferences, and was a member/expert in 6 research projects.
Adam is also a mentor at Codecool, a programming school that is closely connected to the business environment, thus keeping up to date with the latest technologies required on the Romanian labor market.
His computer science expertise is focused on developing efficient algorithms using innovative or established programming techniques, as well as high-level programming languages (Java, C#, Python).

Fields of interest/research:
- Efficiency of algorithms
- Programming techniques
- Web application development
- Machine learning, especially classification algorithms
- Econometrics
- Applied mathematics in economics (especially financial modeling)
