 Bard Mathematics | Program Overview
Mathematics is at the core of human civilization and is the cornerstone of all modern science and technology.
For example, when each senior mathematics major engages in a year-long research program for her senior project, she is not required to work on whatever interests the professor—in contrast to student research at many other colleges and universities.
At Bard all senior projects in mathematics are individually tailored to meet the interests of the students; indeed, the topics for senior projects are often suggested by the students themselves, with guidance from the faculty.

 Learning to prove: The idea of heuristic examples
Our vision of discrete mathematics is that it is a vehicle for giving teachers a new way to think about traditional mathematical topics and a new strategy for engaging their students in the study of mathematics – engage students in mathematics by involving them in discrete mathematics.
They are expected to introduce discrete mathematics in their classrooms, incorporate discrete mathematics into their schools' curricula, and introduce their colleagues, both locally and broadly, to topics in discrete mathematics.
Prospective K-8 teachers often view mathematics exclusively as a body of knowledge, as a set of facts and procedures; their job, when they get to be teachers, will be to transmit these facts and procedures to their students.

 Survey Bits for Review
Enrollment in mathematics and statistics courses taught within mathematics programs at two-year colleges dropped from 1995 to 2000 by about 7.5%, even though over-all enrollment in two-year colleges had risen about 2% from 1994 to 1998, according to the most recent confirmed over-all enrollment data available from the Department of Education.
The gap also is large with regard to a required visit with an advisor before enrolling in a mathematics course, 79% at two-year colleges and 60% at four-year colleges.
It includes mathematics and statistics taught in math departments, statistics taught in statistics departments, and (for two-year colleges) mathematics courses (mostly remedial) taught outside of math programs (e.g., in developmental studies departments).

Australia will need an extra 75,000 scientists within the next six years if it is to meet the demands of the "knowledge economy", a secret meeting of industry chiefs, top researchers and federal agency heads has been warned.
Yesterday, the industrial research group's president, Roy Rose, said mathematics was no longer considered a "sexy subject" and there was a shortage of good graduates going into science.
Mr Rose, who is also general manager of technology and environment at Orica, Australia's largest chemical company, said Labor's indication that it was considering lifting the research and development tax concession to 150 per cent had been a surprise.
