Graham Pash, a Ph.D. CSEM student at the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences is the 2024 recipient of the SIAM Student Chapter Certificate, awarded in recognition of a student’s service and contributions. Pash serves as the local chapter’s event coordinator, supporting students interested in applied mathematics across a wide range of experience levels. Student chapters operate under the umbrella of the larger Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics organization.
“I've met some of the kindest and smartest people I know through SIAM - it’s the society that students in the field of computational sciences should be drawn to,” shared Pash. “There is a tremendous amount of effort put into supporting early career researchers and their conferences are extremely relevant.” Pash is pursuing his research with the Willcox Research Group under Karen Willcox, director of the Oden Institute.
