Mehmet Burak Erdoğan (born 1972) is a Turkish mathematician, scientist, and professor of mathematics. He is a member of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) Mathematics Department.^[1]

Burak Erdoğan was born in 1972. He attended the high school Kayseri Fen Lisesi in Kayseri, Turkey, for two years before moving to İzmir, Turkey where he finished the high school Atatürk Lisesi in 1989. He ranked third in the country-wide university entrance exams. He graduated from Bilkent University Electrical and Electronics Engineering in Ankara in 1994. He finished his MSc degree in Mathematics department of the same university under the supervision of Iossif Vladimirovich Ostrovskii in 1996. He received his PhD in Mathematics under the supervision of Thomas Wolff at Caltech in 2001.^[2] He was the last PhD student of Wolff, who died in the last year of Erdoğan's PhD work.^[3]

He was a postdoc at the Institute for Advanced Study between 2001-2002 and a visiting assistant professor at University of California, Berkeley between 2002-2004. Since then he is a faculty member in UIUC Mathematics Department.

He has been an active researcher, having published more than 50 scientific manuscripts with more than 800 citations. He raised 6 PhD students.^[1][4]

His research interests include harmonic analysis and dispersive partial differential equations.
