Yes, equations and math research projects go hand in hand—but for some PhD in math research opportunities, it’s all about using the equations to find meaning and applying them in a way that makes the world better.

The Lloyd Roeling UL Lafayette Mathematics Conference is held annually during the fall semester on the UL Lafayette campus. The conference is named in memory of Lloyd Roeling who was instrumental in establishing and nurturing this regional conference. The conference topic for 2016 is applied mathematics.The conference provides an opportunity for researchers and students in applied mathematics and related fields to come together, present their research, and learn from each other. The conference begins on Friday afternoon and continues through midday Sunday.
Thomas Credeur, one of our mathematics PhD students, participated in the Second Chicago Summer School in Geometry and Topology at the University of Chicago, July 25-29, 2016. Please join us as we congratulate Thomas for having been accepted to participate in this noteworthy endeavor.
Because math is the basis for all other scientific endeavors—along with its applications in other fields—we see and use it everywhere.
Tingting Tang's research was the subject of an article on the Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) website.
When disaster strikes, responders look at how creatures in its path may be impacted to mitigate damage. Tingting takes the process one step further, using mathematical models to predict how long recovery may take. The creatures that Tingting focuses on are some of the Gulf of Mexico’s largest predators and most charismatic animals, beaked and sperm whales.
Mathematics major John Patterson is the Spring 2016 David R. Andrew Scholar Award recipient.
John has been President of the UL Lafayette Math Society for two years, has worked on undergraduate research in Mathematics, and represented the Math department in the student team competition at the Mathematical Association of America Louisiana Mississippi regional conference three years in a row, where they placed second twice and first once. These are just a few of the reasons John was selected for this award.
Meet Dr. Azmy Ackleh, whose passions for interdisciplinary research and teaching graduate-level math have helped shape the Department of Mathematics.
