Undergraduate math research

Here are some of our faculty members and their work providing undergrads with research experiences. Interest students are encouraged to contact the faculty member directly via email.
  • Monique Chyba has been working with undergraduates for many years, on drones, Covid, etc.
  • Elizabeth Gross has worked with undergraduate students on topics related to her research in algebraic geometry, algebraic statistics, and algebraic biology. 
  • Bjørn Kjos-Hanssen works with undergraduate researchers sponsored by UROP (Summer 2019, Spring 2023) and sponsored by Decision Research Corporation (Summers, 2020-2025)
  • Daisuke Takagi
    Possible research topics include the dynamics of bacteria and plankton, collecting and analyzing data from laboratory experiments, and mathematical modeling with differential equations.
    Here’s a link to his lab https://takagilab.com/
  • Sarah Widiasih Post has worked with undergraduate students on topics in mathematical physics, including projects supported by UROP on solitons and integrable systems.
  • Rufus Willett is interested in working with students on connections between linear algebra, topology, and analysis.
    Prerequisites will vary depending on the topic, but a good knowledge of the material in 307/311, 321, and 331 is important.
  • Malik Younsi worked with an undergraduate researcher sponsored by UROP (summer 2019)
  • Hailun Zheng is interested in working with students on topics concerning the combinatorics of polytopes or simplicial complexes. Student should have knowledge of linear algebra and maybe a bit about combinatorics or topology.
Students interested in undergraduate research might also consider Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs). A list is available here:  https://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/list_result.jsp?unitid=5044
