Undergraduate students

During the Summer, I usually supervise undergraduate students under the SURA (Student Undegraduate Research Award) program at Memorial, and the USRA (Undergraduate Student Research Award) program of NSERC. I have supervised honours projects in Pure mathematics and Applied mathematics. Projects under my supervision, in general, involve some geometry, topology or group theory.
