Prof. Delluza obtained her Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from Adamson University and completed her Master's Degree in Information Systems at the University of the Philippines-Los Baños.

She also earned 21 units for her Doctorate in Information Technology as a CHED Scholar at the Technological Institute of the Philippines.

As the new Dean of CICT, Prof. Delluza's responsibilities include overseeing curriculum revision/implementation in accordance with OBE requirements, developing and redirecting programs in compliance with the University's Vision, Mission, and Goals, implementing specific policies and programs for the college, preparing budget proposals, and providing leadership and workable arrangements for faculty growth and development.

Delluza has been involved in different committees throughout the years, including the Thesis Specialization Committee for Bachelor of Science in Information System and the Technical Working Group (TWG) to Acquire Funding for Smart Campus University, where she serves as the Chairperson and Co-chairperson, respectively.

She also became the Officer-in-Charge (OIC) of Management Information Services (MIS) in 2021, where she accomplished the CatSU email services and the Online Student and Faculty Portals.

Before becoming the Dean in 2016, Prof. Delluza served as the Officer-in-Charge (OIC) of CICT from 2014-2015.

She also served as the Chairperson of the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) from 2009-2013 before joining CatSU as an Assistant Professor I in 2012.

Delluza's appointment as the new CICT Dean of CatSU is expected to lead the college, its students, and faculty to reach new heights and become globally competitive, research-focused, and innovation-driven.

With her undeniable expertise in the field of ICT, research, and teaching, she is the right woman for the job, continuing the exceptional leadership of Dr. Gemma G. Acedo, the former CICT Dean, who was designated as the new Vice-President for Academic Affairs by President Azanza.  #RJI
