William Andrew Craft
UNA Math graduate William Andrew Craft has accepted an offer as a Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) with Middle Tennessee State University. Craft will begin work on his Master of Science in Mathematics in the Fall of 2016. Craft attributes the GTA offer to his involvement in the math department while at UNA.
As a Math Fellow for Calculus 1 and Finite Mathematics, Craft worked with math faculty to provide peer led supplemental instruction. Craft also worked with Dr. Lee Raney, assistant professor of mathematics, and Austin Oldag, a fellow UNA math major, on an undergraduate research project on Permutations of Sliding Puzzles. The research project was presented at a national meeting of the Mathematical Association of America, at a math department colloquium, and at UNA’s Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition. Craft has also worked at Northwest Shoals Community College as a math lab learning specialist. Upon completion of his master’s degree in math, Craft hopes to find a career in defense, actuarial, or financial/risk management field.
