Welcome to the Department of Mathematics web site!
We are still accepting submissions for the second annual
UTC Mathematics Poster Competition. Interested students should contact the poster competition committee as soon as possible.
Step Ahead Math.
If you are an incoming freshman who placed into Math 106 and would like to "step ahead"
into college mathematics this Fall Semester, you might want to register for this class.
MATHEMATICS WORKSHOPS: The UTC Mathematics Department will offer two professional development workshops this summer: one for middle school math teachers and one for high school math teachers. These 5-day workshops are funded through the Tennessee Higher Education Commission (THEC) as part of the Improving Teacher Quality (ITQ) program.
The second annual UTC Mathematics Poster Competition will be held on February 28, 2009. This event is co-sponsored by BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee.
The local chapter of Pi Mu Epsilon held its first annual Sudoku Showdown Competition. Proceeds went to support Chattanooga Community Kitchen. You can view photos from the competition and see the winners at the UTC Mathematics Department Photo Album.

Degree Programs
The Department of Mathematics offers two degree programs, the B.A. in Mathematics and the B.S. in Applied Mathematics. The B.A. is the traditional liberal arts degree with a major in mathematics. The B.S. is a degree program designed to respond to the growing influence of mathematics in business and industrial practices. Students must select a concentration in either general mathematics or actuarial science.
In addition to our degree programs, the Department provides
extensive support for other programs requiring mathematics courses,
including the new PhD program in Computational Engineering. We also
offer a minor in mathematics as well as a joint effort with the College
of Education and Applied Science with a degree in Mathematics Education.
Facilities and Faculty
The Mathematics Department and classrooms are located in a brand-new state-of-the-art facility that most other Mathematics departments only dream of. The modern mathematics labs are equipped with the latest computers and software such as Maple and Matlab. All classrooms are wired for internet connections.
The Mathematics faculty is very dedicated and is continually looking for ways to improve teaching methods. Research areas of the Mathematics faculty are diverse and cover a wide range from applied to theoretical mathematics.
