Ms. P.Y.A.G.S.Yapa registered for her MPhil Degree at the University of Sri Jayewardenepura on 01.04.2009, under the supervision of Prof. D.A. Tantrigoda and Prof. A.P.K. De Zoysa. For the M.Phil Degree she worked in the area of mathematical modeling. She was completed the Mphil degree in 2013 Aug 29th. She was succefully completed the Mphil research of Interpretation of Potential Filed Data Using Backus-Gilbert Inversion Technique.
In 2004, she was graduated from the University of Moratuwa with a Second Upper Class Honours Degree in B.Sc. Engineering in the field of Earth Resources Engineering. Currently she is serving in the Department of Mathematics and Philosophy of Engineering of the Open University of Sri Lanka in the capacity of Senior Lecturer.
