Catherine Beneteau

I am an Associate Professor in the Mathematics and Statistics Department at the 最新天美传媒.

Here is my Curriculum Vitae.

I was educated in Canada, at McGill University, where I got my bachelor's and master's degrees in mathematics. I obtained my Ph.D. in 1999 at the University at Albany, under the supervision of Boris Korenblum.

My main research interests are in complex function theory, in particular extremal problems and approximation in spaces of analytic functions, and in mathematics education, in particular guided inquiry, curriculum development, and collaborations between mathematicians and mathematics educators.

Teaching

This semester I am teaching Calculus 1 (MAC 23111) and Real Analysis II (MAA 5307). If you are a student in one of these sections, all course documents are on Canvas.

Personal Information

I am originally from Canada. My father was French Canadian and my mother is American, so I grew up speaking English and French.

If you are a graduate or undergraduate student and are interested in doing research, please contact me.
