Albert Ball, Ph.D.

Bio

Dr. Albert Ball has worked in the technology industry for over 20 years, holding positions in network and database administration, PC support, and programming, with research interests in all aspects of cybersecurity. A retired U.S. Navy veteran, Dr. Ball served as Dean of the Fisher School of Technology at Hodges University in Naples, Florida.

Dr. Ball believes that technology is pervasive in every aspect of our lives. As such, Christians must gain an understanding of how the social, moral, and integrity implications of technology impact us daily. Therefore, the Christian technology student must learn not only the premises and precepts of good technology practice and implementation, but also to integrate biblical concepts such as wisdom, stewardship, justice, righteousness, and integrity into their daily interactions.
