Research Opportunities for Undergraduates
A research project can be a very important part of an
undergraduate education in mathematics. Besides the
greatly increased learning intensity that comes from
personal involvement with a project, and the chance to
show graduate schools and potential employers the
student's ability to initiate and carry out a complex
scientific task, it gives the student an introduction
to mathematics as it is: a living and developing intellectual
organism where progress is achieved by the interplay
of individual creativity and collective knowledge.
The Department of Mathematics Research Liaison is Prof. Mark de Cataldo. He is available to assist students in
identifying appropriate faculty advisors and to help them clarify their
research interests.
