• Information about Northern Kentucky University Department of Mathematics and Statistics.
  • We currently have 21 tenured/tenure-track positions. Our faculty members are friendly, approachable, highly committed to teaching and enjoy interacting with students in and out of class.
  • The average class size is 24 students, although many classes have fewer than 20 students. Our technologically equipped classrooms present information in a variety of ways and the small class size allows for ample in-class interaction.
  • The programs in our department prepare students for theoretical work through advanced courses in probability, analysis and abstract algebra. Students interested in applied work or preparation to enter the workforce may take courses ranging from applied statistics to applied mathematical models. Unique opportunities exist which allow students to engage in exciting undergraduate research under the guidance of faculty members.
  • The Cooperative Education Program provides students with opportunities to obtain valuable work experience related to their major while earning up to 12 semester hours of college credit. Through co-op positions or working in the Burkardt Consulting Center, students can earn money, gain professional experience, assess the different types of jobs available and gain permanent employment.
  • Many social and academic activities are offered outside of classes. The academic year kicks off with our annual picnic. Twice each semester, major/minor lunches are held for informal interactions with department professors and students. Majors may compete in competitions such as the Virginia Tech exam in the fall, the Putnam exam, the COMAP contests in the spring and the annual Posters-At-The-Capitol contest in Frankfort. There are opportunities for students to travel to conferences such as the KYMAA meetings, Miami (OH) meetings, the joint meetings of the MAA and AMS and the Rose-Hulman conference.
  • Faculty in our department have been recognized with several awards: the NKU Frank Sinton Milburn Outstanding Professor Award, two Outstanding Junior Faculty Member Awards from the College of Arts and Sciences, the MAA George Polya Award and the MAA Kentucky Section's Distinguished Teaching Award.
