Terry Inglese joined the Institute for Information Systems IWI at the School of Business FHNW in 2016 where she works at the competence center Kompetenzschwerpunkt Technology, Organisation & People. Her work as a lecturer consists of coordinating research projects, mentoring students and teaching.

Before joining the FHNW, she worked for about 10 years for the Swiss TV industry, where she designed TV cultural programmes, made documentaries and coordinated the workflow of different TV programmes together with producers, journalists and technical staff. For a couple of years, she was also president of the Swiss Animation Group (Schweizer Trickfilmgruppe).

With the TV archives of the RTSI, she designed an educational and didactic use of TV archive programmes, which she implemented in the university teaching courses of the Università della Svizzera Italiana (USI), Lugano. These courses became educational projects for her PhD research. In 2007, she received her PhD in Education, Instructional Design and Multimedia Learning from the USI in Lugano. She was a post doc researcher at the UCSB - the University of California, Santa Barbara (USA) - for about five years, where she conducted research together with her colleagues of the Departments Education and Cognitive Psychology.

In 2016, she received her MBA (Master in Business Administration) at the FHNW and the Edinburgh Business School of the Heriot-Watt University of Scotland.

In 2017, in the framework of the “train the trainer” Swiss Professional Continuing Education of the SVEB (Swiss Federation for Adult Learning), she finished the five SVEB modules. 

In her free time, with passion and enthusiasm, she teaches Italian language and culture to adult learners at the Migros-Klubschule in Basel.

Her research topics are: adult education, psychology of learning, multimedia instructional design, entrepreneurship education, lead-ership education, well-being psychology (spirituality and pilgrimage studies), consumer behavior and sustainability, qualitative research methods, doctoral business education and factors of resilience (grit).
