Dr. Ralph Lteif is an assistant professor of mathematics in the Department of Computer Science and Mathematics. Dr. Lteif joined LAU as a full-time faculty in Fall 2024. He earned his PhD in Applied Mathematics through a joint doctoral program between the Lebanese University and Grenoble Alpes University in October 2016. He initially joined LAU as a part-time faculty member in 2018, teaching several courses such as Multivariate Calculus, Discrete Structures, Differential Equations, and Biostatistics. From 2020 to 2023, he served as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at LAU. He later continued his postdoctoral research at the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control (INRIA) in Bordeaux, France, from 2023 to 2024.
