Calculating Your Future

Galileo once said, “Mathematics is the alphabet with which God has written the universe.” 

Taylor can help you define your future as a mathematician whether you are interested in education, government, business, ministry, web design, consulting, computer analysis, engineering, statistics, actuarial services, or any other math-related career. With a fully equipped math laboratory, computer lab, resource room, and lounge at your disposal, the Euler Science Complex is an excellent environment for students to collaborate, study, and learn. 

Pursue your passions and participate in career-prep opportunities while exploring the connections between mathematics and the Christian faith. Our award-winning Mathematics faculty are the driving force behind our department. They’ll challenge and guide you in the classroom, and bring you into a dynamic community that expands beyond academics to enrich your spiritual and social development.

Mathematics Opportunities

Deepen social connections with fellow Math majors and gain professional experience on an international scale. 
  • Math Competitions and Conferences

    Math majors consistently excel in local and national math competitions, such as the MATH Challenge, Indiana Collegiate Mathematics Competition (ICMC), and the William Lowell Putnam Competition. 

    Participate in the annual Mathematics & Statistics Conference at Miami University (Ohio), IN-MAA conference, and MathFest. Other conferences include the Indiana Council of Teachers of Mathematics conference and the Mathematical Association of America. 

  • Math Club

    Create deep, spiritual relationships outside of the classroom. Math Club sponsors department picnics, game nights, holiday parties, and meals.

  • Work, Research, and Service Opportunities

    Mathematics majors are in high demand as tutors and teaching assistants. Work for professors by assisting with in-class group work, explaining complex equations and solutions, holding study sessions, grading papers, and giving lectures. You can also volunteer in local schools to help elementary, middle, and high school students learn and enjoy math. 

    Conduct research at prestigious institutions around the country and internationally with Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) programs. Other universities include Hong Kong, NASA, West Virginia, Willamette Valley, San Diego State University, Northern Kentucky University, and more.  

  • Study Abroad

    Math majors are encouraged to explore mathematics opportunities abroad, such as studying in Oxford Best Semester for Mathematics and Statistics or Budapest Semesters in Mathematics. Math Education majors are able to perform their student teaching internationally in locations such as Spain, Taiwan, Australia, France, Cameroon, and Senegal.
