Roisin Neururer

Róisín Neururer is a lecturer/Assistant Professor in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. Her current research focuses on the teaching and learning of mathematics at post-primary level. Róisín completed her PhD in Mathematics Edcuation at University College Dublin in 2024. Her PhD focused on mathematical problem solving at post-primary level and how in-service teachers could be better supported to successfully build their students' problem solving capabilities. As part of this research she developed a set of curriculum materials for teachers to use to support their teaching of algebra at Junior Cycle.

Prior to her PhD studies she obtained a Masters in Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory (ALGANT) from Universita degli Studi di Padova and Université Paris-Sud. She then qualified as a post-primary mathematics teacher and taught for 3 years in the UK at both GCSE and A-level, and completed an MA in Education at the University of Nottingham.

She was the inaugural chair of the European Mathematics Society Young Academy (EMYA), which aims to support early-career mathematicians across Europe.
