Math at SWU
Here's Dr.
Rickman, math professor, with a math student who had just graduated.
The SWU mathematics program
is a program with a Christian orientation-we believe that God created
the universe with mathematical properties, and that He has given us the desire
and the ability to discover and understand mathematical concepts. A Christian
worldview informs all of our courses. All students are required to take classes
in Bible. (See page giving the
fundamental
assumptions of the Science Division)
We
feature a cooperative program with Clemson University, which is about five miles
away, allowing students to take courses that we can’t offer because of faculty
load. This includes linear algebra and abstract algebra, for mathematics majors.
This means that all our math majors have the opportunity to experience a small,
intimate environment in instruction, and also a large state university
environment. Both experiences are valuable in teaching our students to adjust,
and to learn about different styles of doing things.
