The Mathematics program at Carthage is very active and visible, thanks to dedicated faculty and outstanding students. This short summary doesn't begin to describe all that we do, but it should give you an indication as to the department's strengths and emphases. The Mathematics Department at Carthage has a vibrant undergraduate research program.
Many students do additional research in independent study courses, or through the SURE program.
Usually one mathematics student per summer is invited to participate in the SURE program. Carthage students speak at many undergraduate research conferences. In the past five years, approximately 30 students have given talks at regional, state and national meetings sponsored by the MAA or Pi Mu Epsilon. Carthage faculty members are also regular presenters at state and national MAA meetings. Recent undergraduate research papers by Carthage students have appeared in the Pi Mu Epsilon Journal and The Pentagon.
