“I thought that it was a long shot for me. I was super shocked and honored.” Professor Özkan Özer, Associate Professor of Mathematics at Western Kentucky University (WKU), will represent his team of mathematics scholars, WKU, and the Commonwealth of Kentucky as a Fulbright U.S. Research Scholar in northern France starting this fall. According to fulbrightscholars.org, “The Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program offers over 400 awards in more than 135 countries for U.S. citizens to teach, conduct research, and carry out professional projects around the world.” Read the rest of the news here.
Prof. Ozer's research, presented at the IEEE CDC 2023, significantly contributes to the overarching themes of decision making and automatic control. By sharing our findings on the global stage, my research group solidifies the importance of their model reduction and PDE techniques in shaping the future of systems and control of smart material systems.
