Akshat Lakhiwal
Assistant Professor of Management Information Systems,
Terry College of Business, University of Georgia
I am an assistant professor of Management Information Systems at the Terry College of Business, University of Georgia. I completed my Ph.D. Information Systems from Kelley School of Business, Indiana University.
My research focuses on the informed application, use, and management of intelligent systems and technologies. I seek to conduct theory-driven examinations of the consequences of unexpected and potentially undesirable reactions, such as maladaptive coping, moral disengagement, and mixed feelings, that emerge from individuals’ interaction with processes enabled by or information generated by such systems.
I have been trained in various quantitative research methods, including experimentation, econometrics, NeuroIS, and machine learning, and have used them in my research. I thus espouse the philosophy of methodological pluralism, i.e., the use of multiple methodologies, to develop a methodology agnostic research agenda.
Prior to Ph.D., I have an engineering degree in electronics and communication and have completed my MBA from the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi. I have also served in the consulting industry as a financial advisor.
