Dr. Man Basnet

Position
  • Associate Teaching Professor
I am an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Information Systems and Business Analytics (ISBA) at Iowa State University, a role I have held since Fall 2022. Before joining the ISBA department, I served as an Associate Teaching Professor of Mathematics and Data Science, where I focused on teaching and conducting undergraduate research. I have been teaching at Iowa State University since 2013.

I have taught a range of math classes, from College Algebra to Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. In addition, I’ve taught Data Science courses and designed Mathematical Methods in Data Science. More recently, I’ve been teaching Python Programming and Python for Business Analytics at the undergraduate level. At the graduate level, I teach Business Analytics Foundation and Advanced Business Analytics as part of the Master of Business Analytics program, where I also guide students through their applied business analytics projects, helping them bridge theory with real-world business applications.

I have received grants from ELO and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (LAS) for developing online courses and attending learning analytics and data science conferences. I have also been honored with teaching excellence awards from both the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Department of Mathematics, as well as the ISBA teaching award in 2023.
