Florida State University Department of Mathematics

A very special congratulations to our 17 honors medallion recipients from the Florida State University Department of Mathematics!

Nearly half of the 548 Florida State University Spring 2026 graduates who earned honors medallions are from the FSU College of Arts & Sciences! 🏅

Honors medallion awardees completed the University Honors Program or Honors in the Major Program. Those who completed both programs with a 3.9 cumulative GPA or higher received the designation of Outstanding Senior Scholar.

James “LJ” Dunphy, who was recently awarded the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Ernest F. Hollings Undergraduate Scholarship, was interviewed by FOX Weather on his work to develop AI weather forecasts that are more accurate and less computationally demanding than traditional forecasting methods.

Dunphy is a sophomore at Florida State University double majoring in meteorology (Earth, Ocean & Atmospheric Science at FSU) and applied mathematics (Florida State University Department of Mathematics).

It's T-minus 8 days until Florida State University's spring commencement ceremonies, and we're celebrating our graduates! 🎓

Audrey Nash will become a two-time Florida State University Department of Mathematics alumna on Friday morning, walking across the stage to receive her doctorate in biomathematics. In 2020, she earned her bachelor's in applied and computational mathematics.

"Studying mathematics at such an advanced level gives us a toolbox full of interesting and unique ways to solve many different problems, and a scientist's job is to choose and use the right tool for a given problem. It’s a fun puzzle!"

After graduation, Nash will be a postdoctoral researcher at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging in California.
