News from the Undergraduate Program

The Undergraduate Committee this year consisted of Benny Evans, Marvin Keener, Ning Ju, and Lisa Mantini. Lisa also served as faculty advisor to the Math Club. Two of our new courses officially came online this year. They Partial Differential Equations (MATH 4263), which supports both our pure and applied mathematics programs, and Mathematical Interest Theory (MATH 4453), which supports our financial mathematics program. Both of these courses have been taught recently under temporary numbers, but are now on our permanent course rotation.
