Mount Marty College hosted the 13th annual Mathematics on the Northern Plains Undergraduate Conference in Spring 2012. At this conference, undergraduates had an opportunity to present results of their mathematical research or projects. Activities included student presentations, an invited talk, lunch, the Math Quiz Bowl, and a discussion about Opportunities in Mathematics.
Wherever you are in your journey with mathematics, we have a place for you in the math department. We have courses to develop basic competence in mathematical reasoning and intermediate courses that provide the necessary support for a variety of majors. We also have a full course of study for students intending to become teachers, actuaries, researchers, or engineers — and for those who are preparing for graduate study in mathematics or related areas.
For those who decide to major in mathematics, you’ll be welcomed to a department that works hard to tailor your course of study to your goals.
Math majors choose from various upper-division courses in topics as diverse as abstract algebra, topology, real analysis, and complex analysis. Courses in computer science and physics are required, and you can select other advanced courses based upon your interests, choosing from courses such as probability and statistics, discrete structures, and the history of mathematics. We can also help you design a faculty-guided independent study for a unique learning experience.
