Owen Eslinger (US Army Engineer Research and Development Center)
Thursday, October 16, 2008
3:00--3:50 p.m.
Harrelson 330
Dr. Owen Eslinger majored in math and minored in physics at NC State.
He got his Ph.D. in computational and applied mathematics from the University of Texas at Austin.
He then worked with the Department of Defense High Performance Computing Modernization Program before moving to the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center.
Dr. Eslinger will speak about large scale computational science and engineering, with a focus on applications to hydrology and heat transfer.
He will also share a 5-10 min video about the work at ERDC and describe employment opportunities with the Army Corps of Engineers, which is
actively hiring mathematicians, scientists and engineers.
His talk will be interesting and accessible to undergraduates in mathematics, science and engineering.
