Lance Drager, Ph.D. Associate Professor Emeritus

Lance Drager received his BA Magna Cum Laude from the University of Minnesota in 1972 and received Master's (1973) and Ph.D. (1978) degrees from Brandeis University. After a Visiting Membership at the Courant Institute and an appointment at Georgia Tech, he came to Texas Tech as an Assistant Professor in 1983, and became Associate Professor in 1990. His research interests are in Geometric Analysis and its applications, including Differential Geometry, Mathematical Control Theory, Ordinary, Partial and Functional Differential Equations and Mathematical Physics. He has worked with scientists in other disciplines; a paper with two co-authors was awarded the Best Paper of the Year in 2003 by the journal.
