Biography

Born and raised in Detroit, Lazaros Kikas attended Notre Dame High School and studied Electrical Engineering at 香港六合彩开奖. Excited about mathematics and mathematical thinking, I switched subjects and studied Mathematics. My interest in mathematics was using mathematical ideas to understand problems of computer science and engineering.

In graduate school, I studied primarily Discrete Mathematics. I think of discrete mathematics as the mathematics that can be used to study computer science problems and computer science algorithms. I have been at Detroit Mercy since 2003. I first taught at Detroit Mercy as a graduate student in 1991. I am now the chair of the department of Mathematics.
