Marius Truta, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor
Traian Marius Truta, Assistant Professor, Computer Science, has been with NKU since August 2004. He teaches Web and Database Administration; Computer Concepts and Applications; Introduction to Computer Information Technology; Data Privacy and Anonymity, several Programming classes and Database Management classes, among others.
Truta is an avid tennis player and likes to stay healthy, keep in touch with old friends and watch sports and reality shows on T.V.
He earned a bachelor's degree in computer science in 1998, where he ranked first in the department, and a master's degree in 1999, both from Babes-Boylai University in Cluj, Romania. He taught for its department of Computer Science from 1997-1999. Truta has a PhD in computer science from Wayne State University in Michigan, where he also taught from 1999-2004.
His primary research interests are data privacy and anonymity, data mining, statistical databases and disclosure control. "I always liked databases," he says. "I moved toward data privacy by chance, during my Ph.D. studies, due to a collaboration my advisor had with the School of Medicine at Wayne State."
With parents who both taught and inspired him, Truta always thought teaching was a good career. Truta thinks NKU had great potential that is being fulfilled. He has co-authored many papers during and before teaching at NKU, and is responsible for securing much needed grant money to NKU's Computer Science department.
