Students in the department have the opportunity to learn from leading experts in the field while engaging with a diverse community of peers who share an enthusiasm for mathematics.
Department of Mathematics
Undergraduate Program
Mathematics concentrators at Brown can explore concepts through the department's broad course offerings and flexible concentration requirements. The concentration leads to either the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree (the latter is strongly recommended for students interested in pursuing graduate study in mathematics or related fields).
Concentrator Resources
Our resources for math concentrators aim to support students in making informed decisions and effectively planning their academic paths. Resources include course descriptions, as well as recommendations for successfully navigating concentration requirements.
Fifth-Year Master's Program
The Fifth-Year Master's Program in Mathematics is open to current Brown undergraduates
Improve Your Skills
The Math Teaching Fellows Program is a semester-long certificate program that provides Undergraduate Teaching Assistants (UTA) with the skills and knowledge required to be an effective UTA in the Math Department.
The Directed Reading Program (DRP) pairs undergraduate students with graduate student mentors to pursue an independent reading project throughout the semester.
The Math Resource Center (MRC) is a tutoring center that is organized by the math department. Our goal is to provide a resource for undergraduates in order to help with introductory math classes. The MRC employs a mixture of graduate and undergraduate tutors while also encouraging group work among tutees.
The Math Departmental Undergraduate Group (DUG) is a group of undergraduate students who enjoy math and want to take part in the mathematical community at Brown.
Engaging in math research offers a range of opportunities for students interested in deepening their understanding of mathematics and contributing to the field.
