Dr. Olaniyi Samuel Iyiola is an Associate Professor of Mathematics in the Department of Mathematics at Morgan State University, MD. Before joining Morgan, he was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Clarkson University, NY, and California University of Pennsylvania (CalU), now Pennsylvania Western University. While working at CalU, he served as the Program Coordinator for the Professional Science Master’s (PSM) in Applied Mathematics and Data Science. He received his BSc. in Mathematics from University of Nigeria in 2008, his MSc. in Applied and Pure Mathematics from African University of Science and Technology in 2011, his MBA in Business Analytics from California University of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, in 2021, and his Ph.D. in Computational and Applied Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin in 2017. His current research involves the development of new iterative schemes for solving nonlinear optimization problems that capture the complexities of real-life applications and algorithms for solving differential models (local and nonlocal order) with several applications in Biology, Physics, and Engineering.
