Some of his results may surprise you. Professor Smart emphasizes the importance of meaningful research that addresses pressing societal issues and aims to impact real-world problems, and as director of the school's doctoral program, he encourages doctoral students to pursue research driven by curiosity and relevance to today's challenges.
