Part-Time Lecturer – Universidad del Valle

Delivered undergraduate lectures from February 2018 to June 2020 in the Department of Computer Science Engineering at Universidad del Valle, La Paz, Bolivia.

Mathematics for Computer Science (Matemática Computacional)

• First-semester undergraduate course that introduces foundational mathematical concepts for computer science. Topics include propositional logic, set theory, functions and relations, matrices, sequences, series, and number systems.
• Course delivered during semesters 1/2018, 1/2019, and 1/2020.

Statistics for Computer Science (Estadística Computacional)

• Fifth-semester undergraduate course introducing fundamental statistical methods relevant to computer science. Topics include descriptive statistics, probability theory, distributions, regression, least squares, and basic statistical programming.
• Course delivered during semesters 1/2019 and 1/2020.

Software Engineering (Ingeniería de Software)

• Fourth-semester undergraduate course covering the principles and practices of software development. Topics include the software development life cycle (SDLC), requirements engineering, and an introduction to object-oriented theory and Unified Modeling Language (UML), including structural and behavioral diagrams.
• Course delivered during semesters 2/2018 and 2/2019.

Systems Simulation (Simulación de Sistemas)

• Seventh-semester undergraduate course focusing on the modeling and analysis of dynamic systems using simulation techniques. Topics include discrete-event simulation, random variable generation, statistical input and output analysis, and model validation. Simulations were implemented and analyzed using Python.
• Course delivered during semester 1/2019.

Operational Research II (Investigación Operativa II)

• Sixth-semester undergraduate course focused on advanced topics in operational research. Topics include network theory, dynamic programming, game theory, Markov chains, and queuing theory, with practical applications in decision-making and optimization. Algorithmic implementations were demonstrated using Python to reinforce the theoretical foundations through practical application.
• Course delivered during semester 2/2018.

Databases I (Bases de Datos I)

• Second-semester undergraduate course introducing the fundamental principles of database systems. Topics include relational data models, entity-relationship (ER) modeling, relational algebra, normalization, Structured Query Language (SQL), and basic database design and implementation. Emphasis is placed on designing and querying relational databases using practical examples and tools such as MySQL.
• Course delivered during semester 2/2018.
