[3] Neuman received his Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Wrocław in 1972[4] under the supervision of wmpl:Stefan Paszkowski.

In 1986, he took a permanent faculty position at Southern Illinois University.

[11] Among the mathematical concepts named after Edward Neuman are Neuman–Sándor Mean and Neuman Means, which are useful tools for advancing the theory of special functions including Jacobi elliptic functions: Neuman was named the Outstanding Teacher in 2001 in the College of Science at Southern Illinois University Carbondale.
