数学系 & 统计科学
科学、工程和技术学院

The 数学系 and 统计科学 prepares students for jobs that require quantitative, 分析, 以及关键的数学和统计技能. We ready our learners for graduate studies and research of international excellence spanning broadly pure mathematics, 计算与应用数学, 统计数据, 以及数学教育. We foster collaborations with high-tech industries and 政府 agencies with the goal of creating career paths for our students. 我们努力展示数学在现代的相关性和普遍性 经济通过定期的外联活动.

The 数学系 and 统计科学 offers the Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics (BS), 专注于纯数学和应用数学的各个领域, the Bachelor of Science in Education Degree in Mathematics Education (BSED) with an option for Mississippi Licensure in Algebra/Geometry, 及统计学理学士学位(BS). 我们的毕业生继续深造数学或统计学, seek careers as mathematicians or statisticians in emerging high-tech industries and federal agencies or teach mathematics at the secondary level.

The objectives of the 数学系 and 统计科学 for undergraduate training are as follows:
•培养喜欢解决问题的学生的定量分析能力, 统计分析, 数据可视化和发现奖励.
• To encourage students to pursue advance training in mathematics or 统计数据 commensurate with their goals and talents.
•说明数学和统计学在RESEARCH中的作用, 数据的定量探索, 数据分析和可视化, 以及相关的科学领域.
• To prepare effective teachers of mathematics and competent mathematicians and statisticians for work in business, 政府, 行业, 和教学.
• To offer courses in mathematics or 统计数据 for students entering the University with mathematics or 统计数据 deficiencies.
• To offer courses essential for those students pursuing study in major fields other than mathematics or 统计数据, 包括那些选择辅修数学或统计学的学生.

The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Education program is a Council for the Accreditation for Educators Preparation (CAEP) nationally recognized program that grants initial certification as a secondary mathematics teacher.

The 数学系 and 统计科学 offers a doctoral degree concentration in computational mathematics and statistical sciences through the College of Science, 工程与技术博士.D. 计算数据支持科学与工程(CDSE)计划.

The Department also offers programs leading to the MS degree in Pure or Applied Mathematics for students who seek careers in academia, 政府, 行业, 或者商业部门, 和CDSE的硕士学位. 这些课程是为有足够本科统计背景的人设计的, 计算机科学, 计算技术, 以及微积分序列之外的数学.

The 数学系 and 统计科学 is a member of the Mississippi Chapter of the Pi Mu Epsilon Mathematics Honor Society. 本科生、RESEARCH生和教师都是荣誉协会的成员. Society members participate in activities ranging from organizing the Department’s monthly undergraduate seminars to participating and presenting research at the annual meetings of the regional Mathematics Association of America (MAA), 和美国数学学会(自动对盘及成交系统). 数学及统计科学系亦是医学辅助队的机构成员. 你可以在这些数学组织的网站上找到所有About数学的令人兴奋的东西.

The Department also runs a Data Visualization Lab called LISA-QED where members from other organizations on campus can acquire help in analyzing data. Many of our faculty members and graduate students are actively involved in several mathematical and statistical organizations such as the MAA, 自动对盘及成交系统, 工业与应用数学学会(SIAM), 和美国统计协会(ASA).

The 数学系 and 统计科学 aims to equip its graduates with the necessary mathematics and statistical knowledge and skills that prepares them to find solutions to mathematics or 统计数据 problems arising in other academic fields and in areas outside the normal academic setting and to use this knowledge to solve society problems of challenge. The program aims for national and international distinction in preparing mathematics students for a spectrum of careers including academic and nonacademic employment.

最后, the 数学系 and 统计科学 has a rich history of producing generations of mathematics degree holders. 点击历史链接了解更多信息.
