Background:
Dr. Ghandehari joined UTA in September of 1995. Prior to that he was a faculty member for ten years at various universities in northern California. He teaches undergraduate courses in engineering mechanics and stochastic modeling for civil engineers. He also teaches in the Mathematics and Computer Science and Engineering Departments, including courses in mathematical modeling, algorithms, the theory of computation and neural networks. His main research publications are in areas of optimization, control theory and geometry. He has used geometry to solve problems in engineering mechanics. In 2002 he became an honorary life member of the Golden Key Honor Society.
