Dr. Nor Rahayu Ngatirin earned her Bachelor of Computer Science (Honours) from Universiti Malaya, majoring in Information Systems and Management. She graduated in 2002 with Second Class Upper Honours. After working in Kuala Lumpur for two years, she continued her studies in Penang. In 2006, she received a Master of Science (Hons) in Computer Science from Universiti Sains Malaysia, graduating with Distinction.

Following this, she worked as a lecturer at INTI International College Penang from 2006 until 2014. In February 2015, she resumed her studies at Universiti Sains Malaysia and completed her PhD in Computer Science in 2023. During her PhD studies, Dr. Nor Rahayu received two Best Poster Awards for her presentations at the Fourth Asian Conference on Information Systems (ACIS’15) and the Computer Science Postgraduate Colloquium. She also served as a graduate research assistant, contributing to research in big data models.

Currently, she is a lecturer at UOW Malaysia (Penang campus). Her research focuses on the automatic detection of individual differences, particularly learning styles and personality traits. She is eager to connect with others interested in data analytics for the Internet of Things, green data analytics, and code refactoring and optimization in software development.
