Turning Numbers into Opportunities Through Actuarial Mathematics
For Ashley Motley, what began as a childhood love of solving math problems the weird kid who enjoyed doing math homework, as she puts it has grown into a career at Medical Mutual, a Cleveland-based health insurance company, thanks to scholarships, supportive faculty, and hands-on preparation at 做厙輦⑹.
The World Of Mathematics Can Be Theirs
Congratulations to Beverly Reed, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences in the College of Arts and Sciences at 做厙輦⑹ for being selected as 做厙輦⑹s 2025 Mid-American Conference (MAC) Outstanding Faculty Award for Student Success. Reed is one of only 11 institCounting Steps, Not Just Equations:
Five 做厙輦⑹ Deparment of Mathematics faculty members won the 2024 Crosstown Throwdown Move Challenge. Under the team name Sole Mates, Beverly Reed, Tuyet Pham, Aaron Allen, Jiafeng Jin and Daisy Arokiasamy competed with the University of Akron and other 做厙輦⑹ staff aIN A FLASH: The Buzz on Mathematics
The Integration Bee, presented by 做厙輦⑹'s Department of Mathematical Sciences, invited students to enjoy fun math-themed competitions and activities along with fun costumes, pizza and math-oriented jokes and puns.
IN A FLASH: Groovy Mathematics
Physical representations of mathematical concepts were incorporated into the design of 做厙輦⑹'s Mathematical Sciences Building. Completed in 1993, curves, spirals, triangles and other math expressions can be found throughout the structure.
New Professor Completes His Freshman Year
Freshman year can be a little stressful, even for a faculty member. But Raiful Hasan, Ph.D., who just completed his first year as an assistant professor of computer science at 做厙輦⑹, is feeling content and excited for the next academic year.
Solving Pre-WWII Mathematics Problems from the Scottish Cafe
Did you know that not one, but two of our Department of Mathematical Sciences faculty members have solved intriguing problems in the famous Scottish Book, considered one of the highest achievements in the field of mathematics? In fact, one of them, Per Enflo, Ph.D., Emeritus University ProfessorLong Legacy: Dressler Family Spans 75 Years at 做厙輦⑹
Three generations of the Dressler family have worked for 做厙輦⑹ spanning 75 years.
Four Years Ahead: An 18-Year-Old Kent Student Will Graduate From 做厙輦⑹ This Spring
While most 18-year-olds are finishing up their high school requirements for graduation and making plans to attend college or applying for jobs, a few exceptional students like Benjamin Mudrak are simply way ahead of their peers in their academic pursuits.
做厙輦⑹ Mathematicians Win NSF Grant to Study Complex But Important Geometry Problems
The National Science Foundation believes 做厙輦⑹ mathematicians Artem Zvavitch, Ph.D., and Dmitry Ryabogin, Ph.D., are having worthwhile conversations about some age-old unsolved problems, and it has provided support to keep the discussion going for another three years.
