Biography

Dr. Stephen Kadedesya is a Lecturer at Busiteam University and Coordinator of HEAC with extensive expertise in Computational Abstract Algebra and a strong commitment to teaching, research, and academic leadership. He holds a PhD in Mathematics jointly from the Pan African University Institute for Basic Sciences, Technology and Innovation (PAUSTI) and Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), two Master of Science degrees from Makerere University and the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) and a Bachelor of Science in Education of Busitema University. His teaching portfolio spans a broad spectrum of courses, including Applied Functional Analysis, Fluid Dynamics, Continuum Mechanics, Numerical Analysis, Dynamical Systems, Stochastic Processes, General Topology, and various levels of Calculus and foundational mathematics. 

Dr. Kadedesya’s research interests focus on combinatorics, group theory, and mathematics education, with notable contributions in areas such as group actions, algebraic structures, and applied computational methods. He has authored and co-authored several scholarly publications in reputable journals, including work on alternating and symmetric group actions, computational fluid dynamics applications, higher education research models, and STEM integration for sustainable economic growth in Uganda.
