LSSU students Jordan Warzecha and Andrew Davis work intently on a parallel processing research project.
 


MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE RESEARCH

Research is an important part of academics and we feel that students can get involved in research at the undergraduate level. The computer-related degrees offer sophomore-level independent research projects. Students also have an option to have their senior year-long capstone experience be a research project. This is strongly encouraged for students heading to graduate school..

CSCI438/CSCI439 Senior Research Sequence

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science encourages students to become active in undergraduate research. Students have the option of enrolling in a full-year research sequence in their senior year. These projects have the potential to lead to journal publications and conference presentations. If you're interested in getting involved in a research project, just talk to a computer science professor.

MATH490 Mathematics Senior Research

The Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics requires each student to take part in a research project. This capstone course allows a student to work closely with a mathematics professor in one of many fields of mathematics. Contact a mathematics professor for more information.

Faculty Research

Many of the LSSU mathematics and computer science faculty are involved in research. Some of the research areas include:

  • Collette Coullard - operations research, combinatorial optimization, graph theory, and supply chain management
  • Kimberly Muller - Functional analysis with an emphasis on order properties and convergence in spaces of functions
  • Evan Schemm - compilers, computer gaming
  • Mark Terwilliger - wireless sensor networks, artificial intelligence, and parallel processing - http://twig.lssu.edu/research.html
  • George Voutsadakis - algebraic logic, categorical algebra, and universal algebra - http://www.voutsadakis.com/research.html
