The Mathematics Department congratulates Assistant Professor Ruimeng Hu on receiving the Faculty Career Development Award. This award, presented by the UCSB Academic Personnel Office, supports non-tenured faculty who, because of the nature of their position or their role in campus affairs, have encountered significant obstacles in pursuit of their research, creative work, teaching, service, or mentoring obligations, or who have made unusually time consuming efforts in helping to achieve campus diversity. Ruimeng Hu's research focuses on machine learning and game theory.
