College of the Pacific
Welcome to the Department of Mathematics

We share the University of the Pacific mission of providing a superior, student-centered education. Teaching undergraduate mathematics is the most important thing we do.
An education in mathematics will develop your mathematical reasoning, communication and problem solving skills.
Students who choose to major in mathematics will:
- Have opportunities to develop strong problem solving skills using quantitative methods and appropriate technology.
- Understand the strengths, limitations and wide applicability of mathematical modeling in a variety of disciplines.
- Develop an appreciation for the discipline and aesthetics of mathematics.
- Gain an appropriate understanding of theory.
“Studying mathematics is a challenging, yet rewarding experience. The Pacific Mathematics Department is extremely supportive, so your hard work pays off.”
