数学

With mathematics, you are always in demand

Change is accelerating, but fundamentals remain constant and beautiful. 因为 their fundamental training, mathematics majors keep pace with our changing world. Mathematical modeling is applicable to topics ranging from aircraft design to the 病毒的传播. The logical approach of a mathematician is valued in professions such as law and medicine. Modeling and logic together are fundamental for digital manufacturing 和机器人. Finally, there is a significant need for good mathematics 老师.

我会学到什么??

Every mathematical topic is alluring as well as the foundation for practical work.

  • Calculus provides the foundation for modern science and engineering.
  • Probability and Statistics are the pillars that support 数据分析.
  • Numerical Analysis helps analyze complex models.
  • Doing proofs teaches us to be highly precise when analyzing a subject.
  • Licensure majors learn pedagogical skills applicable every day in their classrooms.
  • Digital manufacturing can be used to apply all the above skills and enhance them.

怀特W. and Annie Rae Cross Endowment for Undergraduate 研究 in 数学 supports undergraduate research with scholarships, travel support, equipment support 和更多的. Qualified students complete assigned or self-generated projects with a research 导师. Recent project topics include data analysis to find characteristics of successful college students, probability theory to analyze on-line gaming revenues, celestial mechanics to find special types of central configurations and special orbits for certain objects, and mathematical biology to investigate the Allee Effects due to hunting cooperation in food chain models.

Our 数学 Undergraduate 研究 Scholarships are provided by the Wright W. and Annie Rea Cross Endowment with a stipend of up to $2,000 for each year.

Use 数学 in our Maker Space


鹰创客中心, USM’s first public Maker Space, you can apply mathematical skills in digital manufacturing 和机器人. Dr. 安娜湾, the founding director, routinely makes connections between mathematics, computing, engineering, art and pedagogy. These connections feature the applicability of mathematics as well as its intrinsic beauty. Being able to make such connections across disciplines will add value to your education, too.


Professional Licensure Disclosure

Programs at the University of Southern Mississippi that prepare students for licensure in 数学 (K-12) are designed to meet the licensure standards set by the Mississippi Department of Education.  The University of Southern Mississippi cannot determine whether a particular licensure program meets requirements for licensure outside of the State of Mississippi. Students seeking licensure in another state are advised to contact the appropriate licensing board in that state to determine specific requirements of guidelines for reciprocity. For a list of the state departments of education that oversee professional teaching licensure, see the U.S. Department of Education website - State Contacts 页面.
