Message from the Chair

During the semester, we continued to hold in-person classes while ensuring a healthy and safe campus. Slowly but surely, we appear to be returning to campus life and the activities we enjoyed before the pandemic. It truly was wonderful to see students, their families, and guests at our convocation and hooding ceremonies in May.

We want to recognize the achievements of our undergraduate and graduate students in completing their degree requirements. Obtaining a math degree or a Ph.D. takes hard work and commitment. We have enjoyed teaching and working with our students, and we wish them the best as they move forward in their lives and careers.

This spring the Department of Mathematics received many awards and recognitions for our amazing and talented faculty, postdocs, and graduate and undergraduate students, and staff. The quality and quantity of the awards are a testament to the reputation of the department in having a world-class research and teaching faculty committed to a strong educational and mentoring program. Since 2019, our faculty has received 11 National Science Foundation awards, with the majority received in 2021-2022. We remain focused on our commitment to excellence in research and teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. We are very proud of the accomplishments of all those in our Department of Mathematics community, our faculty, postdocs, and students.

As always, thank you for your support and generosity. We depend on your interest in advancing our mission of excellence, teaching, mentoring, and research.

Best regards,

Davar Khoshnevisan, Professor and Chair Department of Mathematics
