What he does:
-
Conducts research, prototyping, experimentation, and demonstration of advanced technologies to address current and future Air Force net-centric interoperability requirements for maximizing the effectiveness of joint and combined military operations in tactical and operational environments.
Math on the job:
-
There are many forms of math, from logical proofs to differential calculus and beyond. Math problems/solutions frequently show up in contract proposals.
Gennady's background:
- Upon graduation, Gennady held a temporary job as a Computer Services Technician at MVCC. A few months later he was offered two job opportunities simultaneously from PAR Technologies and Air Force Research Laboratories (AFRL) at Rome N.Y. He was hired by AFRL as Associate Mathematician (due to double major).
Advice for students:
-
Most importantly, learning how to learn. Solid understanding of math is crucial for any researcher as it is the basis in other career fields like: physics, computer science, chemistry, etc. My suggestion is to do a double major (one in your area of interest and another in mathematics) or at minimum, get a math minor.
