Mathematics at Mesa State

Our department is dedicated to teaching and has a student to teacher ratio that is highly favorable to students.  Students are consistently able to receive the individual attention they need directly from their professors.

A wide variety of courses coupled with the varied backgrounds and research interests of the faculty make each of the degree programs offered in the Math department well rounded.

Students have opportunities to work on research

projects in mathematics and interdisciplinary projects

involving computer science, statistics, biology,

environmental research or any of the physical

sciences.  These projects give students the                 

hands on experience that makes bridging the

gap between course work and the real world

easier.

The environment at Mesa State College is supportive

of mathematics students.  In addition to the tutoring

and computing resources available to all students,

Mesa State College has a Mathematics Club, a student

chapter of the Mathematical Association of America

(MAA) and an active chapter of Kappa Mu Epsilon (KME) which is a national Mathematics honor society.

Mesa State College students Shane Chatfield, David Miller, and Mackenzie Schmalz presented to over 25 United Space Alliance and NASA engineers at the Johnson Space Center on Monday May 24, 2010.  The presentation was entitled, “Distribution of a Weighted Chi-squared Sum”.  The trip was sponsored by the Colorado Space Grant Consortium (COSCG).  Under the direction of Mesa State assistant professor of statistics Rick Ott, the students investigated the distribution properties of a weighted sum of independent chi-squared random variables by request of Mr. Joe Frisbee, Collision Probability Analysis, United Space Alliance.
