The Mathematics program endeavors to give students a sound background for a basic understanding of mathematics science; to give prospective teachers a professional attitude, a strong subject matter foundation and adequate skills and techniques in the application and the teaching of the material; and, to show students that mathematics is a living and vital discipline by seeing it applied in the classroom and in the various fields of industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mathematics is a rich field with a storied history of brilliant thinkers such as Archimedes, Euclid, Fermat, Newton, Gauss, Emmy Noether and West Virginia native John Nash.  A wide variety of fields, including biology, chemistry, physics, statistics, computer science, engineering, actuarial science and economics are fundamentally dependent on mathematics.  Indeed, it is impossible to find a field of study today in which mathematics has no application.  In Galileo\u2019s words, \u201cMathematics is the language in which God has written the universe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
