Bharath Sriraman (भारतः स्रिरामान) (b. 1971 Bangalore) is an Indian-born mathematician, educator and academic editor,[1] known for his interdisciplinary contributions at the nexus of math-science-arts[2] and theory development in mathematics education, creativity research, and alternative/gifted education.[3]

Education

Bharath Sriraman graduated with a B.S. in mathematics from the University of Alaska Fairbanks in 1995[4] and obtained his Ph.D. in mathematical sciences in 2002 from Northern Illinois University under the functional analyst Robert Wheeler.[5]

Academic and editorial work

Sriraman is a professor of mathematics at the University of Montana – Missoula[6] with an adjunct appointment in the department of Central and Southwest-Asian Studies.[7] Sriraman is the founder and editor-in-chief of The Mathematics Enthusiast, an independent open access journal hosted by University of Montana.[8] He is the co-founder/co-editor-in-chief[9] of two series with Springer Science+Business Media namely Advances in Mathematics Education [10] and Creativity Theory and Action in Education.[11] He is series editor for a number of book series on mathematics education and sociological issues published by Information Age Publishing,[12] and has founded two book series on alternative education published by Sense Publishers.[13][14] In addition to editing he is a prolific scholar with over 300 publications to date in numerous areas of research,[15] and held numerous visiting professorships at institutions in Nordic countries,[16] South America [17] and Eurasia.

Honors

In 2009, Northern Illinois University named him as one of 50 "Golden alumni" in the last 50 years for his significant contributions to research in mathematics education, gifted education and interdisciplinary research at the intersection of mathematics-science-arts.[18] He previously received the School Science and Mathematics Association Early Scholar Award in 2007.[19] In 2016 he was the recipient of the University of Montana Distinguished Scholar Award[20]
