JMU Department of Mathematics and Statistics

With faculty in stats, pure, applied and computational math, and mathematics education, we promote the discovery and dissemination of the mathematical sciences.

Our @JMUMathStat students have joined forces with the Harrisonburg Fire Department to determine the optimal location for a new fire station. The students examined a variety of factors to identify two potential locations for this $4.9 million dollar project. Congrats to this team!

REU projects are an excellent way for students to engage in real research. Check out this fantastic REU project from 2019, featuring our very own Dr. Duncan and Dr. Ducey, along with JMU student Wesley Engelbrecht and students from other universities. https://t.co/MOxRlf67IS

We're spreading the word about a new initiative by the AMS to make graduate education in the mathematical sciences stronger & more equitable.

It's called paraDIGMS (Diversity in Graduate Mathematical Sciences)

The faculty have been working overtime to make this the best fall learning experience. Might not be in person, but might actually learn more this way.

[Alyssa Young @ahv508]

This is such a wonderful video highlighting the care and thought @JMUMathStat has put in to what their classes will look like this fall! This shift takes time and shows just how much work faculty are doing to make sure students get as much out of their classes this year.

[JMU Department of Mathematics and Statistics @JMUMathStat]

Check out some of the innovative ideas the Math/Stat faculty have for this Fall's classes:

JMU will join other state agencies to honor the newly declared Juneteenth holiday. Juneteenth is the oldest known commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States.

JMU will now be closed Friday, June 19. https://t.co/4b6nh4WAUQ
