چکیده

Mission The Department of Mathematical Sciences is dedicated to education, research, and service in mathematics. Our educational mission is to provide excellent instruction and resources for the mathematics education of our students through our courses and degree programs. As the language of science, mathematics is of fundamental importance to the general education of UAH students, particularly students planning careers in science and engineering. Through our bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree programs, our goal is to help produce the new generations of well-educated mathematicians that are critical for the progress of mankind. Our mission in research and scholarship is to discover and disseminate new mathematics and to apply mathematics to problems in engineering and in the physical, biological, and social sciences. Our service mission is to promote and communicate the importance of mathematics in society and to help maintain standards of excellence in mathematics through refereeing and reviewing. Our service mission is to work with other departments and units in UAH to achieve the goals of the College of Science and the university as a whole. We recognize that the components of our mission are not separate but are intimately interrelated. Excellence in teaching, research, and service can only be achieved together. The mathematical sciences faculty offers courses in mathematics and statistics for a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics, a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics with an Alabama Class B Teacher's Certificate, and a minor or second major in mathematics for students majoring in other areas of study. Courses also satisfy individual needs to supplement other areas of study and to satisfy general education requirements (GER).

Mathematics and Statistics in the Social Sciences

Over the years, mathematics and statistics have become increasingly important in the social sciences. A look at the history quickly confirms this claim. At the beginning of the 20 century most theories in the social sciences were formulated in qualitative terms while quantitative methods did not play a substantial role in the formulation and establishment of them. Moreover, many practitioners c...

Summer 2008 Thematic Program- Mathematical and Quantitative Oncology

The application of mathematics to the biomedical sciences is by no means new, but it has expanded almost exponentially over the last few decades. In recent years, it has often been said that the interaction between the biomedical and mathematical sciences will lead, in the 21st century, to advances in both fields somewhat akin to the great strides made in the 20th century, as a result of the ve...
