About
Scott has been a member of the mathematics department since 2015. He earned his undergraduate degree from Dartmouth College and completed his Ph.D. at the University of Colorado Boulder. Prior to joining Boise State, he served as a visiting assistant professor at Dartmouth College.
His research focuses on the representation theory of finite groups, with particular emphasis on matrix groups over finite fields and their connections to symmetric functions and related combinatorial structures. He also has a growing interest in sports data analysis, especially in applying mathematical and statistical techniques to better understand performance and strategy.
