Our outstanding math programs give students the critical, analytical and problem-solving skills valuable for advanced studies or careers in a wide range of fields. Our wide-range of courses include calculus for business, statistical techniques and topogrophy. High-quality classroom technology and opportunities for teaching and research experience advance learning.
The Canisius Advantage
Study tracks include mathematics, statistics, mathematics education and a mathematics minor. Further, Canisius offers the only pre-actuarial program in Buffalo. Since math provides the theoretical and computational background for a modern approach to many disciplines, double majors and concentrations in other areas are also encouraged. For example, math is at the core of bioinformatics, an exciting field that is transforming the way biological data is analyzed using information technology.
Math students are encouraged to tailor a program of study that meets their particular interests and career goals. Our alumni are prepared for careers in medical research, biotechnology, education, business or government.
Canisius' Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program allows students to participate in research projects focused on the study of graphs. The program, which is funded in part by the National Science Foundation, was recently extended through 2011.
