Complex chemistry, Machine learning, and quantum mechanics are fields that take strong computers and a lot of time to understand. Dr. Sijia Dong is simplifying that process by uniting the three.

Dr. Krioukov’s lab recently published two papers in the field of network science. These papers show that (1) the geometry of networks can be elucidated by understanding the network’s latent properties and (2) For networks living in latent space, finding their geometry is possible using a previously known standard called Ollivier Curvature.

Kathleen Watt works for Insurance Brokerage Firm in New York City. Katie was a Mathematic major, Class of 2011 What made you interested in studying mathematics at Northeastern? Why do you believe this is a great choice for a major? “I am a little bit different in that I went into college searches knowing that […]

Hear from Hazel Sive, Dean of the College of Science, as she talks to Paul Hand , Assistant Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science, on his research on theory and algorithms for machine learning and artificial intelligence in the context of vision and imaging.

Read the impact one student has had on gender equality within mathematics at Northeastern

When COVID-19 emerged as global threat, it demanded action. The Northeastern College of Science heard the call. Read the stories of the COS community doing their part to fight the pandemic.

Congratulations to Oyinda Oyelaran and Prasanth George, who have been named the 2020 COS Teaching Awards Recipients!

As mathematics professor Valerio Toledano Laredo will tell you, symmetry is more complicated than you might think. But the theory that underlies it might make the world a little more simple to understand.

The Northeastern Mathematics Department will be hosting a conference on Quantum Structures in Algebra and Geometry from August 26-30

For the past 25 years, Northeastern University has been partnering with Boston Public High Schools to give rising junior and senior students the skills they need to succeed in their fall calculus classes through the Bridge to Calculus program. As the 2019 session, which started June 24th, draws to a close this Thursday, August 1st, […]

Professor Toledano Laredo was awarded a three-year National Science Foundation grant for his research in Representation Theory (the mathematical study of symmetry) and Mathematical Physics. The project, titled “Exponential periods, bispectrality, and affine quantum groups” will allow Professor Toledano to further his study of the relation between quantum groups, which are deformations of the basic […]

Two COS students have received the 2019 Goldwater Scholarship. With this award, they will continue STEM research in microbiology.

Northeastern hosted more than 100 high school students on its Boston campus Tuesday for Calculus Field Day, where the students competed in teams to solve challenging calculus problems and advance their knowledge of and passion for mathematics.

Paul Hand, an assistant professor of mathematics and computer science, has received a CAREER award from the National Science Foundation to figure out how neural networks can be used to construct images, while searching for the mathematical theories behind those networks.
