Mathematics & Computing

You are a problem solver.

You get a thrill out of unraveling a good mathematical or technological mystery. It’s time you turn that passion into a degree from Lander University.

You’ll study under a faculty committed to providing a quality undergraduate education that enhances your development as a student and prepares you for a successful career. You’ll have access to a wealth of resources, including modern computer facilities and state-of-the-art classrooms, lecture halls and laboratories. And because of Lander’s small size, you’ll enjoy a comfortable openness within those settings. You will get to know both the faculty and your fellow students because you’ll have opportunities to interact with one another and grow intellectually.
