Cultivating a Culture of Entrepreneurial Mindset and Undergraduate Research

Dr. Daniel Vallieres

Research Interests:

  • Algebraic Number Theory
  • Algebraic Combinatorics

CURE-E Course: Analytic Geometry and Calculus (MATH 120)

Project Title: Applications of calculus within students’ disciplines

The purpose of the course is to learn limiting processes in mathematics such as the calculation of tangents and areas via derivatives and integrals, and to apply those tools to various problems.  The hope is that the CURE-E component of the course will make students have a better awareness of the usefulness of calculus in their respective area of studies.  In this way, the hope is to increase pass rates in MATH 120 and make the course directly more relevant to each student.
