He is actively working on the advancement of computational applied mathematics at the University of Bristol, where he was the head of the Mathematics Department until 2008. Previously he was a professor at Caltech in Pasadena, California.[2] Field of studyStephen Wiggins contributed in many different areas of mathematical physics from classical dynamical systems point of view. Nonlinear dynamics and chaosHis book [https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/b97481 Applied nonlinear dynamical systems and Chaos] cited more than 3000 times.[3] Transport theory and fluid dynamicsHis recent works on chaotic mixing attract considerable interest, with the leading expert in the area, Julio Ottino.[4] References1. ^{{Cite web | url=http://thesis.library.caltech.edu/2960/ | title=On the geometrical and statistical properties of dynamical systems : Theory and applications| year=1994}} 2. ^{{cite journal|url=http://www.projecteuclid.org/DPubS?service=UI&version=1.0&verb=Display&handle=euclid.bams/1183555034|title=Review: Stephen Wiggins, Global bifurcation and chaos: analytical methods|journal=Bulletin (New Series) of the American Mathematical Society|volume= 20|issue= 2|pages=256–259|date= April 1989|accessdate=2008-10-22|last= Devaney|first= Robert L. | authorlink = Robert L.
