Students Supervision
Dr. Zhuang's group attended New York Conference on Applied Mathematics in Rochester on October 17, 2009:
Current Students who are currently at UB:
You may stop by my office during my office hours listed here, or email me to set up an appointment, for the following opportunities:
- Ph.D. or M.S. thesis advisors and/or committee members
- Graduate and undergraduate research experiences (individual problems; independent study)
- Summer research internships
- Other general advice on academic issues
Prospective Students who are currently not at UB:
You may email me for research and funding opportunities. To better serve your requests, you are encouraged to contact me
if most of the following conditions are satisfied. In your email, please explain those conditions to me, attach supporting documents (such as cv/resume, transcripts, relevant papers and awards) in PDF formats (do not zip/rar), and make sure your email size is less than 5Mb.
- You meet the minimal admission/entrance requirements for the UB-ISE's Ph.D. or M.S. program.
- You had some training in mathematical modeling, optimization, dynamic programming, game theory, control, economics, and/or decision/risk analysis.
- You are interested in pursuing a Ph.D. degree in operations research with me at UB-ISE.
- You are interested in (or at least open to) academic positions upon receiving your Ph.D.
- You have looked at my recent research papers and are interested in (and capable of) extending some of them. (In your email, please explain; critiques and some preliminary work would greatly help.)
