Congratulations to all!

Today, Mathematics graduates crunch the numbers...

1,044 mathematics students will cross the stage today in two ceremonies as convocation continues.

The and the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ announced funding for 18 new projects across the University. This federal government funding helps pay for equipment, building additions and other infrastructure associated with research.

The University media release focuses on CFI-funded research projects that will investigate new techniques of analyzing big data.

The Statistical Society of Canada (SSC) has awarded Honorary Membership to Bovas Abraham, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science at the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ. The citation for the award reads: 

Impressive results for the Faculty of Mathematics in 2013 QS World University Rankings by Subject

The 2012 are in. 

À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ students Frank Ban, Kangning (Colin) Chen and Hao Sun received honourable mentions.

Professors Ashraf Aboulnaga (Cheriton School of Computer Science), Ali Ghodsi (Department of Statistics & Actuarial Science), Ian Goldberg (Cheriton School of Computer Science) and Kristen Morris (Department of Applied Mathematics) have received new funding from the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation's . Through this fund, the provincial government "is providing talented researchers with the support they need to undertake cutting-edge research."

When people picture a mathematician, they often imagine someone serious and anti-social, working alone in an office.

Not so in the real world of mathematics, and not so at the ! The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ’s Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing (CEMC) hosts this challenging, collaboration-based contest on Wednesday, April 10.
