Department of Mathematics

Undergraduate Research

Many of the Department of Mathematics faculty members are engaged in scholarly research and often have opportunities for students. In addition, the department is currently participating in interdisciplinary research with the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems and Department of Chemistry.

Students may participate in undergraduate research in two ways:

Individual, independent study conducted on a topic selected by the student
Individual or group studies conducted on an existing faculty member's research interest

These options are an essential part of the University's Undergraduate Research Program (URP) and Quality Enhancement Program (QEP). The department's research activities support both the URP and QEP programs.
