Quinn A. Morris

Dr. Quinn A. Morris is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Appalachian State University, serving as Graduate Program Director since August 2023. Previously, he was an Assistant Professor (2018–2024) and a Visiting Assistant Professor at Swarthmore College (2017–2018). He holds a Ph.D. in Computational Mathematics from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (2017), an M.A. and B.S. in Mathematics from Wake Forest University (2012 and 2010).

His research focuses on qualitative behavior of solutions to nonlinear differential equations, particularly in biological and ecological modeling. Key areas include semipositone problems, nonlinear boundary conditions, and density-dependent dispersal models. He collaborates with institutions such as LSU, Auburn University, and Winston-Salem State University.

Morris is also an affiliate faculty member in the Math & Science Education Center at Appalachian State. Beyond academia, he officiates NCAA Division III and high school basketball, contributing to the Triad Basketball Officials Association.
