Student Learning Outcome |
How is this outcome assessed? |
|
1 |
The student will develop the analytic skills,
knowledge base and attitudes necessary to use mathematics well |
Results from Praxis II,
Success in graduate school, feedback from
physics and chemistry faculty, and the results of the senior project
paper |
|
2 |
The student will have the ability to learn and
communicate mathematics and other technical information independently |
Results from Praxis II,
feedback from physics and chemistry faculty, and
the results of the senior project paper |
|
3 |
The student will have an understanding of the
role of technology as a tool in the mathematical sciences |
Results from Praxis II,
Success in graduate school, and the results of
the senior project paper (many of the projects use computer software
but not all) |
|
4 |
The student will have a solid understanding of
the core subjects of undergraduate mathematics |
Results from Praxis II,
Success in graduate school, feedback from
physics and chemistry faculty, and the results of the senior project
paper |
|
5 |
The student will have an understanding of
introductory statistics and elementary computer programming |
Grades in required statistics course |
|
6 |
The student will do some more specialized work at
a more advanced level |
Results of senior project paper |
|
1. Column 3, "How is this outcome assessed?" may be completed if
the information is available. A fourth column will be added next
year, "What are the results of the assessment of this learning
outcome?" |
