Pacific University

The fellowship recognizes Neudauer's lifetime of advocacy for women in the mathematical sciences, which has included work in Africa, South America and New Zealand.

The long Pacific faculty member is selected for the Gung & Hu Award for Distinguished Service to Mathematics from the Mathematical Association of America.

Professor Nancy Neudauer will be connecting women in mathematics while researching matroid theory as part of a 2023-2024 Fulbright Global Scholar Award. The project supports her dream of bringing matroids to a wider audience in collaboration with researchers in South Africa and New Zealand.

The National Science Foundation award will provide mini-grants for research opportunities over the next five years through the Center for Undergraduate Research in Mathematics.
