Sir Edward Foyle Collingwood CBE FRS FRSE DL LLD (17 January 1900 – 25 October 1970) was an English mathematician and scientist.
By arrangement his first service was aboard the dreadnought battleship HMS Collingwood but his naval career was cut short during World War I when in 1916 he was invalided out of the Navy following an accidental injury.
His early academic results were not special and in 1922 he moved to Aberystwyth University where he became interested in complex analysis and published a paper relating to Nevanlinna's theory.
Collingwood returned to mathematics after the war and continued his interest in meromorphic function and in 1949 published his research on the theory of cluster sets.
He held several professional and civic appointments including President of the London Mathematical Society 1969–70, Chairman of the Council of Durham University from 1953, Chairman of the Newcastle Hospital Board 1953–1968, Vice President of the International Hospital Federation 1959-1967 and Treasurer of the Medical Research Council.
