About the Math Center
The Mathematics Center offers students with low academic averages the opportunity
to develop the basic mathematics skills that will enable them to continue the
regular university program within one or two sections of study. The program emphasizes
mathematics problem solving strategies and analytical thinking. The Mathematics
Center also offers a Mathematics laboratory for each DSM 01 and DSM 09 course
which improves the basic skills related to logical thinking required for mathematical
operations. Students also have tutors available and opportunities to learn how
to use mathematical software in IBM compatible computers. The Mathematics Center
is a place where all members of the university community will be able to enhance
their knowledge and understanding of mathematics. All students are able to visit
the Mathematics Center to develop their mathematical thinking. The Mathematics
Center has computer software for all mathematics courses. Software applicable
to other areas of study, offering useful tools for a better analysis and understanding
of the phenomena, will also be available at the Mathematics Center. For example,
biology students will be able to learn chi-square (x2), and other probability
techniques involved in genetics. Students from the social sciences will be able
to come to the Mathematics Center to obtain a better understanding of the statistical
methods involved in research and other probability strategies. The Mathematics
Center provides faculty workshops related to the uses and applications of mathematics
in their respective areas of studies and also will be a place for faculty to
obtain specific workshops as requested. The Mathematics Center will not be only
a place for students with mathematics related problems on specific subjects,
it will also provide a challenging work site for advanced students in all areas
of studies where mathematics is involved.
