Rihab Al Zubaidi
Associate Professor of Accounting

Biography

I would like to introduce myself; my name is Rihab Alzubaidi, I am from Iraq, and I was born in Baghdad in 1958. I arrived at À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ in 2011 following sixteen years at different universities in Jordan working with both the graduate and undergraduate level.

I work now in the Accounting and Finance department and served as an Associate Professor to teach accounting. I have experience on several committees (Finance, Curriculum, and Faculty Center Advising Committee).

I was primarily interested in using excel spreadsheets and Microsoft access database for accounting applications. Most of the time, I use computers as a research tool rather than as a teaching tool.

I am married and I have three boys, their ages are 14, 20, and 21.
