All mathematics majors work one-on-one with a faculty member on a senior capstone project. Some projects are expository in nature, while others deal involve partial solutions to open problems. Students write up their findings in a formal paper and present their results to the faculty and other students. Students whose projects are exceptionally good are encouraged to present their results at regional and national mathematics conferences and/or submit their papers for publication.
