Dr. Hugo's teaching and research interests focus on societal challenges, economic and business structures, marketing, and behavior change. Her current research project is in collaboration with California Polytechnic, San  Luis Obispo to create  solar cookers to be used in communities that rely on open fire cooking. The goal is   to educate people within those communities on how create their own solar cookers, instead of trying manufacture and ship them across the world. Dr. Hugo focuses on the cultural differences of these communities in order to understand their concerns with adopting this technology or how modifications to the cookers could be made to better meet the needs of preparing meals which are typically made in that region.
