About Me

Louis Finegan

Bio Picture

I am an Irish graduate with a First Class Honours Master of Science in Mathematical Physics from Maynooth University and a First Class Honours Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Statistics from TU Dublin. Throughout my studies, I developed a strong foundation in applied mathematics and theoretical physics, exploring areas including cosmology, quantum field theory, fluid mechanics, relativity, statistics, differential equations, numerical analysis and machine learning. I also studied pure mathematics, with interests in ring and field theory, group theory, differential geometry, and real analysis.

I am a passionate learner and enjoy research in Applied Mathematics. Beyond my studies, I have found a real passion for teaching as a tutor at Maynooth University. I enjoy the challenge of identifying gaps in a student’s understanding and breaking down problems so they become clear and approachable.
