Lecturer

Dr. Namayanja is an applied mathematician, a teacher and researcher at Kabale University. She has supervised several undergraduate and graduate students and published several articles in peer reviewed journals. Research interests include dynamics on networks on which several articles have been written, chaotic dynamics, Partial differential Equations, and would like to get involved in dynamics of networks.
