Experiential Education in a Mathematics Discipline via an Experimental Teaching and Learning space

Description

Housed in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, this collaborative teaching and learning space will have students:

1. designing experiments that are modelled by mathematical equations,
2. using mathematical software and tools commonly used in industry, which will aid in the design and collection of the results of the experiment,
3. writing scientific and technical reports, and
4. working and communicating in a team-oriented environment with their peers and faculty.

With these learning outcomes, students are engaging in experiential education that showcases fruitful applications of mathematics to real world problems, and gaining professional skills necessary for the workplace.
