Applied mathematics involves the application of mathematics to problems which arise in various areas, e.g., science, engineering or other diverse areas, and/or the development of new or improved ...
Alan Veliz-Cuba has received funding from the Simons Foundation and the American Mathematical Society for some of his research. You can probably think of a time when you’ve used math to solve an ...
Areas of pure math such as algebra, analysis, combinatorics and many others can be used—in some cases combined—to solve the complex math problems arising from applications of math to the real ...
Study how to use math and computation to model science, engineering, social and biomedical problems, and learn the secrets of symmetry, form, number and shape. SFU's Mathematics Department specializes ...
Math disabilities can arise at nearly any stage of a child's scholastic development. While very little is known about the neurobiological or environmental causes of these problems, many experts ...
Our faculty and students connect with engineers and scientists across departments, schools, and institutions, applying mathematics to challenging problems presented by the world around us in ...
Students often struggle to connect math with the real world. Word problems—a combination of words, numbers, and mathematical operations—can be a perfect vehicle to take abstract numbers off ...
