About
Alfa Heryudono has been with the UMass Dartmouth Department of Mathematics since 2008. He received his BS in Physics from the University of Indonesia in 2000, M.S. in Mathematics from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville in 2002, and PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of Delaware in 2008. From 2010 until 2012, He was a Marie Curie Visiting Research Fellow at the Department of Scientific Computing at Uppsala University in Sweden. His research interests include numerical methods for function approximations and partial differential equations, scientific computing, mathematical modeling, and applied computing problems in engineering and industry. Heryudono's research is supported by Marie Curie FP7 EU, NSF, and ONR. He initiated a Mathematical and Computational Consulting (MC2) course as part of university study learning through engagement category to train students in analyzing and working on research problems solicited from local research groups and industries. His university services include the Math Dept Assessment coordinator, the Data Science MS program co-director, and the EAS PhD program co-director. Heryudono is a SIAM (Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics) member and an associate editor of the Journal of Approximation Software (JAS).
