Biography
Dr. Natalie Agus is a lecturer in the ISTD pillar at SUTD. She has a strong passion in teaching and has begun helping and teaching various undergraduate computing courses at Sophomore, Junior, and Senior levels since her PhD candidature. The subjects she currently teaches also include programming in Python, Java, C#, and C/C++. She is interested in searching new ideas to deliver academic materials in the most engaging way possible, and constantly updates her teaching methods accordingly. Apart from teaching, she is also currently involved in research projects involving room acoustics and music information retrieval. Her thesis focused on developing binaural room reverberation algorithms, which allow perceptually realistic audio rendering in real time. She obtained her Bachelor of engineering with specialization in robotics and completed her PhD in digital audio signal processing in SUTD right before joining the university as a lecturer. During her free time, she enjoys boxing, playing acoustic guitar, as well as piano.
