Scott Surgent received a Master’s Degree in mathematics from the University of California, Riverside (including a year in Australia), where he researched Random Fractal Geometry and Dynamic Systems. He has been teaching at ASU since 1994, and over the years has taught almost all first and second-year mathematics courses, and usually teaches the Calculus for Engineers sequence. Since 2011, Surgent has been the coordinator of First Year Mathematics, helping manage all first and second-year courses, and since 2012, oversees the online mathematics program. He has served on many departmental and university committees. He is a co-author of "Calculus and Its Applications" (Pearson, 10th and 11th editions and an Extended Version, 1st Ed) with Marvin Bittinger and David Ellenbogen.
