\"\"<\/a>Congratulations to Assistant Professor Sauleh Siddiqui, who has been selected to receive one of thirty-two 2018 Johns Hopkins Catalyst Awards<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Initiated in 2015, these grant awards of up to $75,000 support the promising research and creative endeavors of early career faculty with the goal of launching them on a path to a sustainable and rewarding academic career. The program encompasses funding, mentoring opportunities, and the chance to join a cohort of peers at a similar stage in their career. The funds are allocated on a competitive basis in response to an annual university-wide request for applications.<\/p>\n

“In an environment where federal research funding remains elusive, especially for early-career faculty, it is vital that we support the most creative and ambitious ideas of our brightest minds,” says Johns Hopkins University President Ronald J. Daniels<\/a>. “Our investment in these scholars is a commitment not only to them and to our institution but to the future of their fields.”<\/p>\n

Prof. Siddiqui’s funds will be used to create mathematical models to help predict learning, decision-making, and gaming for a variety of societal systems. The goal is for these models to serve as a unified mathematical framework for many research projects across the university while also helping JHU strengthen its collaborations and remain competitive in the securing of large government grants.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n

“The Catalyst Award will not only serve to push research collaborations forward, but will also provide a vital asset in furthering my objective of solving large-scale systems problems. Creating new integrative math tools will provide a framework for not only civil engineering, but fields such as energy, economics, and public health so that faculty can have a unified model to use for a variety of applications,” he states.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-13734","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news_categories-awards-and-honors"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nProf. Sauleh Siddiqui to Receive a 2018 Catalyst Award - Department of Civil & Systems Engineering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/case\/news\/prof-sauleh-siddiqui-to-receive-a-2018-catalyst-award\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Prof. Sauleh Siddiqui to Receive a 2018 Catalyst Award - Department of Civil & Systems Engineering\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Congratulations to Assistant Professor Sauleh Siddiqui, who has been selected to receive one of thirty-two 2018 Johns Hopkins Catalyst Awards.
