The Legacy of H. J. Ettlinger Project, established by the Educational Advancement
Foundation, helps support research relating to the mathematician Hyman Joseph
Ettlinger (1889-1986).
Ettlinger received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1920. He joined the faculty
of the University of Texas at Austin in 1913, where he chaired the Department of
Pure Mathematics for approximately 25 years. He retired in 1968.
Ettlinger was especially noted for his teaching. His research was in differential
equations and the calculus of variations. He was associated with the University of
Texas Defense Research Laboratory, where he worked on aerodynamics.
