The capstone project is completed by taking the Senior Colloquium (MTH 490) usually within the year of graduation. The Senior Colloquium allows students to draw on their mathematical background while investigating a topic not readily available in the curriculum. Students research the topic in conjunction with a faculty mentor. As part of the capstone, students produce a final paper and make an oral presentation to a general audience of faculty and mathematics students. |
