## Tina Wu - Provost's Postdoctoral Fellow ![Tina Wu](https://www.stern.nyu.edu/sites/default/files/assets/images/tina%20wu%20profile_1.JPG "Tina Wu") Link to CV ## About Me I am a Provost's Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Management & Organizations at NYU's Stern School of Business. I earned my PhD in Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania, where I was a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. I earned my BA in Literature and Sociology (double major), *magna cum laude*, from Yale University. I am a sociologist of work and organizations, and an ethnographer and medical sociologist focused on organizational theory, technology, and intersectional social inequalities based upon race and ethnicity, gender, and social class. The contexts of my research are front-line healthcare service delivery, service sector work, and care work. I have published peer-reviewed research on technology and its impact on service sector managerial relationships, meaning-making in work and personal identity, and social class, culture, and mobility. My latest projects focus on organizational culture and control of a distributed workforce in home health care for the elderly and/or disabled, and a systematic review of research on race & ethnicity and systemic racism in research on management and organizations. My methods are primarily qualitative (e.g. in-depth observations and interviews) but I am also experienced in quantitative approaches (e.g. statistical analysis of nationally representative healthcare data). **Peer-Reviewed Articles** Wu, T.

San Diego, CA: Cognella Academic Publishing ## Teaching I am fortunate to have a wide range of teaching experiences, including working with traditional undergraduates in the Liberal Arts and in Business, graduate and professional students, non-traditional adult learners, and firstgeneration college goers. I have taught and mentored high school students in public schools in West Philadelphia and Philadelphia's Chinatown, and I have lectured MBA candidates at NYU Stern. Throughout my diverse teaching experiences, I consistently emphasize critical thinking, and C. Wright Mills's "sociological imagination" approach to situating personal problems in broader social context. **Selected Teaching & Mentoring Experience** New York University Stern School of Business Management and Organizations, Instructor, Core undergraduate course, Fall 2019 *shared course curriculum, sole-instructor* Drexel University Sociology of Health and Illness, Instructor, Undergraduate elective, Winter 2017 *independently developed course curriculum, sole-instructor* University of Pennsylvania Good Jobs, Bad Jobs, Instructor, Freshman writing seminar, Fall 2016 *shared course curriculum, sole-instructor* Social Stratification, Instructor, Undergraduate elective, Summer 2016 *independently developed course curriculum, sole-instructor* Introduction to Sociology, Teaching Assistant, Undergraduate core, Spring 2013 Social Statistics, Teaching Assistant, Undergraduate core, Fall 2012
