ESP Biography

AHMED ABDELQADER, CCNY Undergrad with a Passion for Math!

Major: Electrical Engineering/Math

College/Employer: City College of New York

Year of Graduation: 2017

Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hello everyone! My name is Ahmed Abdelqader, and I'm an undergraduate freshman at the City College of New York. Currently, I'm studying Electrical Engineering and Mathematics.

My passion for Mathematics (and for cSplash events!) was developed at Brooklyn Technical High School, my alma mater. During high school, my friend Jason and I created a Math Enrichment program called "MathMatters!", teaching topics in Discrete Mathematics in middle schools all over New York City. We were both in Brooklyn Tech's math major, and attended Splash events at Columbia and NYU. Now is the opportunity to give back to the world of Mathematics by educating our younger peers and contributing to the Math Community!

M212: Graph Theory in Splash Splash Fall 2014 (Nov. 15, 2014)

What is a graph? This might seem like a simple question, but I bet Euler would disagree! Together we will discover a branch of Mathematics that was discovered hundreds of years ago, but has deep significance today.We will delve through its rich history, and explore applications in Abstract Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Sociology and many more fields! And it all begins with seven bridges...

M214: Various Topics in Discrete Mathematics in Splash Splash Fall 2014 (Nov. 15, 2014)

You might grow up thinking that Mathematics is about algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and eventually calculus. But contrary to popular belief, Mathematics has dozens of other branches (over SIXTY different, occasionally interrelated, but always applicable).We'll delve into different topics of Mathematics, their applications, and how you can develop a stronger passion for your own favorite field in Math!

E215: Fundamentals of Circuits in Splash Splash Fall 2014 (Nov. 15, 2014)

Are you considering the field of Electrical/Computer Engineering? Maybe even Civil or Chemical Engineering? Or do you want to know electricity powers your devices, combining theoretical and practical knowledge? Then join this class and partake in a journey filled with math, physics, and engineering!
