Ryan Rusich: Computer Scientist
Ryan Rusich is a Lecturer in Computer Science at the University of California, Riverside. He is renowned for his engaging approach to teaching web development, digital privacy, computer security, and encryption. His curriculum is designed for both CS majors and non-majors, making complex concepts accessible through hands-on experiences and, more recently, AR/VR. Under his guidance, students learn to create generative AI-Art content, enhancing their web programming assignments with innovative designs.
Ryan emphasizes the societal and ethical implications of digital rights and emerging technologies, fostering a classroom environment where students are encouraged to critically analyze the broader consequences of ever-evolving technology on society.
Creativity as a Path to Excellence
Creativity is at the core of my teaching style. Students are strongly encouraged, supported, and allowed the freedom to explore their own creative talents at computer programming. The programs they develop are novel, relevant, and fun. My students widely report an increased confidence and skill with computers and programming as a result of taking my courses.
My mission is to provide a transformative learning experience that empowers students to become agents of positive change in their communities. I am committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive environment that values creativity, innovation, and social responsibility. Amor Fati, RR.
