Meghna Mittal Visiting Assistant Professor Department of Mathematical Sciences Carnegie Mellon University Office: Wean Hall 8204 Phone: 412-268-7377 Email: mittal@math.cmu.edu Mailing Address: WEH 6119 Department of Mathematical Sciences Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3890 USA.

About Me: I received my doctorate in mathematics at the University of Houston under the supervision of Vern Paulsen. I earned my B.Sc. Degree in Mathematics from the University of Delhi in 2003. Later I pursued my Masters degree with the Mathematical Sciences Foundation (MSF) and continued it at the University of Houston and pursued my PhD subsequently.

Teaching: I am currently teaching following two courses. Math 21-112 Math 21-120 Students taking these courses with me can find information by logging into their blackboard account.
