The University of Illinois Springfield College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences is part of a $25,000 National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) grant aimed at helping public colleges and universities navigate the world of artificial intelligence.
Helena Soares is a double major in Mathematics and English. She delights on the synergy between these seemingly disparate fields. Her love for both subjects is akin to a poetic equation, where words and numbers dance together, creating a symphony of intellectual curiosity.
Helena is a poet. She weaves verses that transcend the mundane, infusing them with the elegance of mathematical patterns. This is one of her found poems,

Why are fewer people riding public transit, and what do lower farebox revenues mean for state and federal government in their oversight and support of transit agencies? In an article published last year in the Municipal Finance Journal, our research team at the Institute of Government and Public Affairs developed some hypotheses for a possibly permanent decline in commuting: many workers became accustomed to working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic and have been hesitant to return to working in the office (Funderburg et al. 2023).
Recently, my colleague, Professor Liang Kong, gave a very interesting talk at the Conference on Security and Information Technologies with AI, Internet Computing and Big-data Applications (SITAIBA 2023
In a forthcoming special journal issue, faculty from the College of Health, Science, and Technology are making waves at the forefront of integrating traditional methods with artificial intelligence in computational science and engineering. Here’s an overview of this groundbreaking work:
