Profile

Dr. Kenn H. Kim is an assistant professor of College of Business at Clemson University. He holds a Ph.D in Management Information Systems from University of British Columbia. His research focuses on Computer-Aided Decision Support Systems in general, and more specifically on recommendation systems, virtual worlds, social media, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, and e-Commerce. In the areas of system implementation and empirical methods, he uses decision-aids tools based on behavioral theories and data analytic algorithms, such as, text mining and machine learning; and investigates their impacts on individuals' decision-making process through lab experiments. His work has been published in MIS Quarterly and Information and Management.
