Grant started his Bachelor of Mathematics
at the University of Wollongong in 1994, which he completed in 1997 with a
First Class Honours degree. He then undertook a PhD in 1998 with Professor
Jim Hill, to investigate stress distributions beneath granular stockpiles
and within stable rat-holes. Currently, Grant is an ARC Australian
post-doctoral fellow in the School of Mathematics and Applied Statistics
at the University of Wollongong.
Grant is a member of the Australian Mathematical Society (AustMS),
the Australian and New Zealand
Industrial and Applied Mathematics Society (ANZIAM) and the Institute of Mathematics
and Applied Statistics (IMAS).
On the 4th of July 2005, Grant will
be commencing a pernament lecturing position within the School of Mathematics
and Applied Statistics at the University of Wollongong.

Grant's main area of research is
modelling the flow and behaviour of granular materials using the theory
of continuum mechanics. Currently, he is investigating two-phase industrial
granular flows, where flow of the solid granular material is influenced
by either a gas phase or a fluid phase.
Grants:
ARC Australian Post-Doctoral Fellowship,
"Mathematical modelling of two-phase industrial granular flows",
2003-2005.

During Grant's time as a post-doctoral
fellow, he has obtained experience in large class teaching via lecturing
half of the first year mathematics subject MATH188. He has also tutored
various courses.
