The
goal of mathematics is to quantitatively describe the world in which
we live. Primary to achieving this goal is
the creation of solutions to problems. Wooster’s faculty members encourage
students to discover solutions to
problems through creativity and careful reasoning.
Almost every discipline uses more quantitative tools than in the past.
Research in the physical sciences is almost unthinkable without the use
of mathematics and computing. New branches of mathematics serve the biological
and social sciences. Artists and musicians use mathematical and computer
capabilities to create entirely
new visual images and sounds.
