Welcome to the Department of Mathematics web site!

NEW The third UTC Mathematics Department Newsletter is now available.

NEW 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.

NEW The annual Mathematics Department award ceremony was held on April 16, 2008. The department wishes to congratulate award winners Wayne Bock, Frank "Trip" Brannen, Jenna Bussell, Caitlin Harwood, Maria Knox, Daniel Long, Sarah Nelson, Ulyana Pugina, Wes Smith, and Shaun Walker. Photographs

MATHEMATICS WORKSHOPS: Instructors from the UTC Mathematics Department will be offering three workshops this summer. These 5-day workshops are funded through the Tennessee Higher Education Commission (THEC) as part of the Improving Teacher Quality (ITQ) program.

The first annual UTC Mathematics Poster Competition was held on January 26th. This event was co-sponsored by BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee. Congratulations to the winners! Photographs are now available.

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.
