Mathematics plays a critical role in efforts to understand the nature of the physical universe and in the continuing development of technology. Emphasizing excellence in both research and teaching, the Mathematics & Statistics Department at BU offers a wide range of courses in pure and applied mathematics and statistics at the undergraduate and graduate level. The department has particularly strong groups in dynamical systems and applications, geometry/topology, mathematical physics, number theory, and probability and statistics.
