Nicole Beisiegel joined the School of Mathematical Sciences in September 2020. Previously she was an IRC Postdoctoral Research Fellow (2018-2020) at University College Dublin, and a Postdoctoral Researcher at University College Dublin (2016-2018) and the University of Hamburg (2014-2016). Nicole has an MSc (2010) and a PhD (2014) in Applied Mathematics from the University of Hamburg where she did her graduate research in the School of Integrated Climate System Sciences.

Nicole’s research focusses on numerical methods in the geosciences. As such it sits on the intersection of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and Earth Sciences. She studies computational methods and algorithms to find novel solutions to problems of societal relevance. Having grown up at the Baltic Sea coast, she has a particular interest in coastal flooding as well as extreme flood events caused by severe storms, hurricanes, and tsunamis.

Nicole is a member of the Society of Applied Mathematics (SIAM) for which she acts as Faculty Advisor to the local SIAM-IMA Dublin Area Student Chapter. She’s also a member of the Irish Meteorological Society (IMS) and the treasurer on the IMS committee.

Nicole has a keen interest in talking about and promoting interest in science beyond TU Dublin students. She regularly talks at public events such as Pint of Science, or Bright Club Dublin to promote maths and careers in STEM to students independent of gender and socio-economic background.
