Travis A. Olson
I attended the University
of Wisconsin at Oshkosh from January 1991 until May 2000 where I
obtained a degree in Chemistry, Physics and Secondary Education. I
taught the 1999-2000 school year at Appleton Christian High School
where I primarily taught Physics and Chemistry. In the summer of 2000 I
moved to Colorado to join the graduate program in the Physics
department. I graduated in December of 2001 with my master’s degree. I
returned to grad school in the fall of 2004 in the Mathematics
department to work on my PhD. My research interest is in fluid dynamics
and I am studying a 2-D anisotropic reaction diffusion system (think
liquid crystals, odds are good you are staring at some liquid crystals
right now, LCD).
