Scholarship : The Department values and recognizes multiple forms of scholarship, including that related to STEM education reform and diversity, equity, and inclusion in pedagogy. The Department plans to continue drawing upon an ever-expanding broad range of faculty interests and talents and to promote vital connections with a wide variety of academic communities.
Service Toward Broadening Participation : The Mathematics Department would like to deepen and expand its commitment to improving equity, diversity, and inclusion in STEM fields by diversifying the curriculum, fostering a diverse and anti-racist community, creating, and maintaining inclusive learning environments, and offering mentorship to students from multiple backgrounds.
