Dr Darfiana Nur received her BMath degree from The University of Gadjahmada (UGM) Indonesia in 1988, MSc (Research) from The University of Western Australia in 1993 and her PhD in Statistics from Curtin University of Technology Australia in 1999 respectively. After completing her doctorate, she became a postdoctoral researcher in Queensland University of Technology (1999-2001) and then at The University of Newcastle in 2001-2003 respectively, before taking up an academic appointment at The University of Newcastle in the period between 2003 until 2014. In 2014, she took a lecturer position at Flinders University, Australia, and then moved to Curtin University in 2020 for a senior lecturer position, taught Statistics, Data Science and Actuarial Science. She is now a senior lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the UWA.
