Our faculty interests include, but are not limited to:
Each semester, we run a weekly seminar series featuring speakers from within the department and the university, as well as outside visitors. In some years, our seminars have been organized around a yearly topic. Topics from past years include Mathematical Finance, Thin Films, Phase Field Models, Stochastic Differential Equations, Crystallography.

UB's scientific computing plays an important role in many of our faculty research projects. In addition to a network of desktop machines and access to university-operated timeshares, a group of faculty share a small Dell cluster.
Our faculty have access to UB's Center for Computational Research (CCR) for visualization hardware and cutting-edge supercomputering capabilities.
