Mikaela Irene Dimaano Fudolig[1] (born 1991 or 1992) is a Filipino physicist and former child prodigy. She is known for earning her undergraduate degree at the age of 16.
Life and career
[edit]Fudolig was a sophomore at Quezon City Science High School before being pulled into the experimental Early College Placement Program (ECPP).[2][3] At the age of 11, she began her university education at the University of the Philippines Diliman (UP Diliman). She was admitted without a high school diploma and without taking the UP College Admission Test (UPCAT).[3]
In 2007, at 16 years old, Fudolig graduated with a bachelor's degree in physics, summa cum laude, from UP Diliman. With a general weighted average of 1.099,[n 1] she was the class valedictorian.[2][3][4] She then joined the faculty of the National Institute of Physics after graduation.[5]
She earned her Master of Science degree in physics, and in 2014 her PhD from UP Diliman with her dissertation entitled, "Analytic treatment of consensus achievement in two-level opinion dynamics models of completely connected agents with single-type zealots." She was also a Fulbright scholar for doctoral enrichment in behavioral economics at the University of California, Irvine, where she was under the supervision of Donald G. Saari.[2][5][6]
Fudolig has worked as a research and development specialist for the Energy Development Corporation (EDC), and as an assistant professor at Ateneo de Manila University from 2016 to 2017.[6] She is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Vermont. Previously, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics from 2018 to 2020.
In 2016, Fudolig was admitted to the University of the Philippines College of Law.[2][4][5]
