DC at nightChristopher Shaw

I am an Associate Professor of Mathematics at Columbia College Chicago working in the Science and Mathematics department, where I have been (starting as Assistant Professor) since fall 2010. I did my PhD at the University of Maryland, College Park (2008), and I was previously Associate Director of the Norbert Wiener Center for Harmonic Analysis and Applications at Maryland, where I also taught large lecture courses in elementary calculus. My teaching work at Columbia ranges from introductory (liberal arts mathematics), to intermediate undergraduate (calculus sequence) to advanced undergraduate (linear algebra, differential equations). I am also the co-editor of the Illinois Mathematics Teacher, the official journal of the Illinois Council of Teachers of Mathematics. In the meantime, I am working on research in the area of model theory of weakly o-minimal structures, as well as working in mathematics pedagogy.
