Recent projects have included mathematical modeling, fractal dimension, artificial intelligence, and networking a soda machine. Projects may be interdisciplinary. Internships are encouraged for all as an opportunity to sample careers in mathematics and computer science. Students have worked as interns in government, businesses, hospitals, and high schools both in Baltimore and in other parts of the country. The department has access to excellent computing facilities.
Students use microcomputers and workstations linked by a campus-wide network.
