Mathematics
Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.
– Albert Einstein

What Students Say
“Professor Morvan taught me how to conceptualize calculus and clearly articulate what I was doing in my work.”
Timothy O’Connor
“Professor Nusbaum [demonstrated] how math is an art where every step of the process plays an essential role. When a class changes you as a person, you know the professor has made a significant impression on you. Professor Nusbaum has taught me to take pride in my work, be detail-oriented and not omit any steps in a process, and carry myself with integrity, humbleness, and resilience. Thank you for believing in me. I am honored to have been your student and your Math 150B (Calculus II) supplemental instruction leader.”
