Pejman Sanaei is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Georgia State University. In 2019-2022, he was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at New York Institute of Technology. Prior to that, he was (2017-2019) a Courant instructor at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences (CIMS), New York University and working on mathematical modeling and simulation in the Applied Math Lab and Research and Training Group in Mathematical Modeling and Simulation at CIMS. Pejman did his PhD (August 2017), in applied mathematics at the Department of Mathematical Sciences at New Jersey Institute of Technology at Complex Flows and Soft Matter Group. He has an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering (fluid mechanics) and a masters degree in pure mathematics, both completed before he began his PhD studies at NJIT. During his PhD studies he also completed a master's degree in applied statistics, awarded in December 2016. He has expertise in deterministic and stochastic approaches to mathematical modeling, fluid mechanics, fluid structure interaction, tissue engineering, applications of mathematics to industry and in particular his dissertation topic is mathematical modeling of membrane filtration. Pejman is the faculty advisor for the SIAM student chapter at GSU.
