Education & Professional Development
My Ph.D. mentor is Dr. Lucas M. Stolerman at OSU, USA. I earned my B.S. in Mathematics and M.S. in Pure Mathematics from the University of Dhaka (Bangladesh), and an M. Sc. in Mathematics from Concordia University (Canada). During my time at Concordia, I was fortunate to be mentored by the late Professor Syed Twareque Ali, whose guidance profoundly influenced my academic journey. Following my M.Sc. from Concordia, I began my faculty role in Fall 2015 at the Department of Mathematics, University of Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Earlier, I organized a biweekly seminar for the SIAM OSU Student Chapter and co-organized the study Session in mathematical epidemiology and dynamical systems (main organizer was my advisor, Dr. Lucas M. Stolerman) at OSU. I was also founder of the SIAM OSU Student Chapter and the president from 2023 to 2024 and from 2024 to 2025. I served as the main organizer of the 2025 SIAM Central States Section Student Conference (https://tinyurl.com/26ksu3fr) held on March 29 at OSU.
