Curriculum
Coordinator: Dr. Roman Kossak
The Mathematics curriculum provides a broad background
in science and the humanities as well as a thorough
grounding in higher mathematics, particularly,
calculus and its applications. In addition to computational
techniques, students learn the rudiments of rigorous
mathematical argument and proof. Problem solving
and reasoning skills learned in the course of studying
mathematics not only provide a solid base for transfer to
a senior college, but also assist in a wide variety of
career options and disciplines such as physical and biological
sciences, computer science, education, economics,
business, finance, health, human behavior, and
social science.
