Mari-Jo P. Ruiz is a Filipina mathematician, currently a professor emeritus of mathematics at Ateneo de Manila University.[1] Ruiz specializes in graph theory and operations research.[2][3]

Ruiz grew up in Manila, and was educated at College of the Holy Spirit Manila. She graduated from Marymount Manhattan College in New York City in 1963, and soon afterward completed a master's degree at New York University. She joined the Ateneo de Manila faculty in 1965, choosing academia over industry because at the time it paid slightly better,[3] and completed her PhD at Ateneo in 1981.[2] At Ateneo, she has served as chair of mathematics, chair of management engineering, dean of arts and sciences, and trustee. She retired to become a professor emeritus in 2009.[3]

With Jin Akiyama, she is the author of the book A Day’s Adventure in Math Wonderland (World Scientific, 2008; translated into 7 other languages).[4]

The College of the Holy Spirit Alumnae Foundation gave Ruiz their Distinguished Alumna in Education Award in 2001.[2] In 2014, Ateneo gave Ruiz their Lux-in-Domino Award.[3]
