Successful defense of Dr. Jay Jones's dissertation

The department’s team is delighted to announce the successful defense of Dr. Jay D. Jones’s dissertation. Jay completed his dissertation on the topic “Work, Technology, and the Paradox of Non-Use: Ethnographic Insights into AI Implementation,” in which he examined the implementation of artificial intelligence within an organization based on an ethnographic study. As always, we would like to thank our colleagues—Professor Michael Hassemer (Chair of the Doctoral Committee), Professor Kai Bauch (Second Reviewer), and Professor Daniel Heyen (Member)—for participating in the defense, as well as the team for their support throughout the event and the Jones family for the refreshments. As always, we all look back on a wonderful and successful time with Jay and, with mixed feelings, are happy for him and wish him the very best for his life after his doctorate!
