| Mathematics is a discipline that combines
creativity and imagination with logic and precision. Whether
motivated by a practical problem such as the "greenhouse
effect" or by an abstract one such as algebraic structures,
mathematicians seek out patterns and relationships bewteen
quantites and structures in order to describe and understand
them. Both theory and applications are important, so the
mathematics program at St. Edward's provides a balanced
exposure to both, thereby preparing students for bachelor's
level jobs or for graduate study. |
