The Mathematics Center

The Mathematics Center is a unique and valuable resource for Merrimack College students of all majors, providing a central location where students can collaborate with tutors and with one another to become better learners of mathematics. The immediate goal of the Math Center is to assist students in enhancing their knowledge and understanding of topics covered in their mathematics and mathematics-related courses, and to promote self-confidence in mathematics; the long-term goal is to extend this self-confidence to self-sufficiency in applying a scholarly approach in all problem-solving situations.

The Math Center is a dynamic environment where students can drop in at no cost and with no prior appointment. The Center is always staffed by both a Professional Tutor who has a graduate degree in mathematics and by Peer Tutors who are certified by the College Reading and Learning Association.

The Math Center is a great place to study and learn on one’s own or with other students, to share common interests, to discuss graduate school and mathematics-related professions with faculty and staff, to serve the Merrimack College community as a Peer Tutor, and more!

The Math Center also offers a number of workshops to help students be more successful in their mathematics (and other) courses! For more information about these workshops and to access the workshop registration form, please click on “SPRING 2012 Math Center Workshop Calendar & Registration Form” in the box at the right.

All students in Day and Graduate, Continuing, and Professional Education courses are welcome to visit the Math Center and to attend workshops.
