Rebecca Reichenbach

Post-doctoral Fellow
Advisor: Dr. Jenni Momsen

Research interests: I am interested in effective mentoring at critical transition points: (1) post-baccalaureates - think of this as the "gap" between earning a Bachelor's and entering graduate school - and (2) the rural student experience as they transition into university level courses. How can we best support them and other under-represented groups so they stay in our field? I am also investigating student understanding of stochastic processes with the goal of developing a more effective approach to instruction.
