From the architecture of a skyscraper to the spiral of a seashell, everything around us follows mathematical laws.
In our undergraduate program, you’ll connect mathematics in a meaningful way to your own life. You’ll see how each topic connects to your deepest self while growing as a mathematician and a person.
See how it all connects
You’ll learn to understand deep mathematical concepts and how they relate to real-world applications. By seeing how the infinite nature of your own consciousness is captured by these mathematical concepts, you will experience mathematics as a natural part of yourself.
In our classes you’ll see how mathematics connects to areas such as computer science, economics, biology, physics, art, and more.
Dive deeply into mathematics
As a student at MIU, you’ll take only one full-time course per month, instead of juggling multiple classes, exams, and homework assignments at once. You’ll have the time you need to dive deeply into each course.
Our small student-faculty ratio means that you’ll have plenty to time to ask questions, connect with your professors, and receive the support you need for academic and personal success.
See the beauty of mathematics
In our mathematics courses, you’ll be challenged and expected to meet high standards. You will learn how to justify mathematical arguments logically.
In our classes, you will engage in activities that will allow you to see the beauty of the organizing power of mathematics, the language of science.
As a student, you’ll have the opportunity to present your research papers at the annual meeting of the Iowa Section of the Mathematical Association of America, where several of our students have received Outstanding Student Paper awards.
