Mathematics is the gateway to understanding many and varied fields: space and time, money and commerce, growth and decay, motion and change. Mathematics at Jacksonville University provides exciting opportunities to investigate real-world problems in a teamwork setting, to "discover" mathematical ideas in a cooperative learning environment. Students are "researchers," teachers are coaches, and all are part of a learning team. The use of graphing and computational technology supports learning and the development of mathematical communication skills. JU's mathematics program has received national acclaim for its reform of the teaching of calculus as a lab science with real world applications. Students may choose to add one of the following concentrations: Engineering Mathematics - Prepares students to enter an engineering program in applied mathematics. Students add selected courses in applied mathematics and engineering. Actuarial Science - Prepares students for careers as actuaries. Students add selected courses in statistics, as well as courses in applied mathematics and in finance. They also prepare for the first actuarial examinations. Mathematics Education - Prepares students for careers as secondary school mathematics teachers. Students add education courses and experience in student teaching. A solid background in high school mathematics is expected. Students desiring to major or minor in mathematics usually start with Calculus I, although advanced placement is available. For those requiring background for success in calculus, a precalculus course called "Mathematics of Motion and Change" provides an interesting introduction. Career Opportunities Qualified juniors and seniors may earn college credit while working with a business or industry in the local area. Past interns have worked in hospitals, banks, software development companies, and schools. Opportunities for participating in research are available. Recent and current projects include space-filling curves, knots and DNA, random walks, and topics in chaos theory. Graduates have found positions in business, industry, governmental agencies and secondary education. Some of their employers include the USF&G Insurance Co., NASA, Hewlett-Packard, the U.S. Department of Energy, the Internal Revenue Service, and BellSouth.
