Mathematics is both a tool for solving practical problems as well
as a very creative field of study, combining logic and precision
with intuition and imagination. The basic goal of mathematics is
to reveal and explain patterns---whether the pattern appears as
the growth a population of animals, electrical impulses in a computer,
fluctuations in stock market prices, or as intricate detail of an
abstract geometric figure.
Each application to the Mathematics Major or Mathematics Education
Major is considered individually and is approved or rejected based
upon departmental discussion of the applicant's potential to satisfactorily
complete the major. For this reason, students interested in pursuing
either major should begin taking Mathematics courses as early as
possible.
Students desiring a degree in Mathematics Education must be accepted
as a Mathematics Major and also be accepted into the Education Program.
Students considering a major in Mathematics Education should contact
by email or phone (859) 985-3576 and enroll in EDS 200 as soon as
possible.
