Announcing Quantum Information Theory REU for summer 2008!
The Department of Mathematical Sciences houses the programs in Mathematics
and Computer Science. Department offices are located in the lower
level of Seibert Hall.
Mathematics is best described as the study of patterns. In that sense,
everybody is a mathematician. Mathematics as an academic discipline
simply carries the study of patterns to a greater depth. Geometry concerns
patterns of shape. Arithmetic concerns patterns of number. Calculus
concerns patterns of continuous change. Statistics concerns patterns
of chance. The Department offers courses serving majors, minors, the Core
curriculum, and other disciplines.
For prospective students: Why math at SU
and Outcomes.
Mathematics - Secondary Education combines a regular mathematics
major with the Education Department's
program for certification for secondary school teaching.
Computer Science is the study of the basic principles of computing. Courses
range from elementary programming through graphics, computer architecture,
operating systems, networks, artificial intelligence, advanced programming,
and the theory of computation.
The applications of computers to business and data management are the
subject of the program in Information Systems, which is housed in the
Weis School of Business.
