Gihane Mansour Abou Jaoudeh holds a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Paris North University (Paris 13), France, and from Saint Joseph University of Beirut, Lebanon, an MSc in Mathematics in the field of “Partial Differential Equations” and a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics both from USJ. She is an Associate professor of Mathematics since 2018 and head of the Department of Mathematics at the Faculty of Sciences of USJ since 2019, as well as an executive Committee Member of the “Lebanese Society for the Mathematical Sciences, LSMS”. Until 2019, she was coordinator of the Master’s program “Actuarial and Financial Science” at USJ, a dual degree program with ISFA-UCBL, France. Her main research interest includes domain decomposition, fluid mechanics, A posteriori Analysis (PDE), and more recently actuarial modelling (mortality tables, Machine Learning, …). She teachs Topology, Differential Calculus and Optimization, Functional Analysis and Operation Research.Mansour was granted a Token of Recognition and Appreciation from the General Arab Insurance Federation and the Lebanese Association of Actuaries, in March 2023.
