Sambest2 Professor Grace Alele-William is the first female to receive a Ph.D in Mathematics. She is also the first female Professor in Mathematics, also the first female VC of a university. She is the first female to receive a Ph.D degree in general. @ sambest maybe u do ur findings again coz Prof Grace Alele Williams got her Ph.D in Mathematics education while Prof Ugbebor got hers in Mathematical science, both in different faculties |

hybeenoni:Wow!!!, I see you've done a little "googling", I don't dispute your finding. When you talk of Mathematics, it's mathematics. Only when you try to differentiate then you say Mathematics Education or Mathematical Science, just like mathematical science can further be divided into pure and applied. But still at that, I doubt if she is the first to obtain a Ph.D in mathematical science, whether pure or applied. I know she is the first to become a Prof. of Mathematics in UI and the third in Nigeria as a country. Do you know what amazes me?. My lecturer who is a Prof. told us that She taught him in his Masters. |
