- Dear Potential Employer:
-
- I am seeking a position as a computer professional, university/college
- instructor, numerical scientific computing research associate or
- postdoctoral research associate.
-
- I have just completed my doctoral degree program and would like to resume
- work in your department as soon as my application is granted.
-
- I have 5 years teaching experience in mathematics, statistics and computer
- science. I have taken courses in parallel computing methods, numerical
- solution of partial and ordinary differential equations, computational
- fluid dynamics and optimization techniques. Although, my Ph.D. thesis is
- concerned with numerical solution of Hamiltonian dynamical systems, I am pretty
- comfortable with the above research areas. I also have considerable
- knowledge in UNIX operating system and molecular dynamics simulation codes.
- I am self-motivated and would be able to make an impact in the teaching
- and research activities in your department.
-
- A copy of my resume which includes names of my references is given below.
-
- I hope my application would be given a favorable consideration.
-
-
- Sincerely,
-
- Daniel Okunbor.
