Dr. Brian Albright has worked at Concordia University, Nebraska since 2004 where he teaches all levels of undergraduate mathematics classes. When not in the classroom, he advises mathematics majors and writes mathematical material. Dr. Albright has written two textbooks, one of which has a second edition, which he uses in his own classes. He has also written ancillary material for several other textbooks.
Dr. Albright earned his D.Sc. in Systems Science and Mathematics from Washington University in St. Louis in 2004. Prior to that, he received a B.S. in Mathematics and a B.S.E. in Secondary Education from Emporia State University in 2000, and an A.S. in Science from Colby Community College in 1997.
Albright is a lay leader at his church where he helps with maintenance and construction projects. He is also a member of the Seward Volunteer Fire Department as a firefighter and EMT.
