专业会议

Converse mathematics 专业 get grant funding to attend regional 和 national professional conferences while they are still undergraduates – a rare experiential learning opportunity you won’t find at most universities. 在这些会议上, our students sample cutting-edge scholarship through lectures, 专题讨论及海报环节, while gaining experience presenting posters of their own. The networking is fantastic – students can meet graduate school reps, 专业同行和导师, 甚至是潜在的雇主.

高级研讨会           

Students choose a particular topic of interest in mathematics 和 work closely with a faculty member to research 和 conduct a presentation as part of their major during their senior seminar.

最近的研讨会主题包括:

• 博弈论与数学
• 密码学
• 魔方的数学
• 数学界的女性
• 图论

社会学习和课堂游览

Converse math 专业 study hard 和 play hard, together – 和 often at the same time! Field trips 和 parties with their professors mix fun 和 learning while creating bonds that last a lifetime.

作为一个数学专业的学生, you’ll take courses in classical mathematics as well as special topics courses designed by the faculty. The foundation for a mathematics major includes the calculus sequence 和 a collection of more advanced, essential courses such as 微分方程 和 抽象代数. 课程 in these areas serve as pillars of the study of mathematics in general, so that after program completion you’ll be prepared to tackle any mathematical problem. The program culminates with a senior seminar project in which you’ll select an area of interest in mathematics to research independently.

In addition to learning to solve higher-level problems, majoring in 数学 will allow you to effectively communicate logic concepts, 整理和分析数据, to use technology in conjunction with other problem-solving skills.
