Discovery begins here! Mathematics is the language of the sciences, and our Mathematicians (and this includes students too) create new technology, discover new ideas, and develop computational algorithms that have profound impact on science. In our department, students have access to research, competitive internships and career training opportunities that will prepare them for the demands of current and future society. Our highly enthusiastic faculty make our classrooms discovery incubators.

Research highlights power of interactive, gesture-based lessons when teaching abstract math concepts
The work is led by Professor Hortensia Soto and described in a new paper published in Problems, Resources, and Issues in Mathematics Undergraduate Studies. The paper showcases how gestures and body language can be used to explain abstract algebraic ideas that may be difficult for students to engage with through formal teaching methods.
