Student Organizations and Activities

$Students from the Math & Stats Department club$

As an SRU math major, you'll enjoy a strong sense of community through our lively student clubs, frequent activities, and dynamic study spaces. You'll also have opportunities to interact closely with our dedicated faculty, who are committed to excellence in teaching and eager to get to know you as an individual.

Mathematics and Statistics Assistance Center

The Mathematics and Statistics Assistance Center is a free walk-in tutoring service run by math majors. The service is offered Mondays through Thursdays 5:00-10:00pm. This service covers lower-level mathematics and statistics classes including Quantitative Reasoning, Precalculus, Discrete Math, Calculus I, Calculus II, and Calculus III.

Math Club

Our student-run Math Club is a very active organization, meeting once a month during the academic year. Meetings feature talks on math topics, information about careers in mathematics, and always, pizza!

STATISTICS CLUB

The SRU Statistics Club was formed in 2019 to address the growing interest of students in statistics careers and activities. Meetings occur about once a month and include speakers, information seminars about jobs and internships, and planning for attendance at local and national statistics meetings. The SRU Statistics Club is also an official student chapter of the American Statistical Association (ASA), and members of the club get discounted student membership (currently $20 a year) for the ASA. Come see what all the fuss about data is about!

ACTUARIAL SCIENCE CLUB

A lot of our majors are planning to become actuaries, so this club is really active. Once-a-month meetings might be about national exam preparations, how-tos for resumes and job fairs, or guest alums telling how they've moved through their own careers.

PRESERVICE TEACHERS OF MATHEMATICS

PTM is a student chapter of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the premier national organization for math teachers at all grade levels. The club meets once a month to discuss aspects of the teaching profession, job search, and local conference and service opportunities. Practicing teachers or administrators are sometimes guest speakers.

Kappa Mu Epsilon

KME is a national honor society for mathematics. Started in 1931, there are now chapters at 114 schools. The SRU chapter was founded in 1999 and celebrates high achievement by students. Membership is by invitation only, and inductions are conducted once a year, usually in late spring.

Dead Poets Society Problem-solving Group

DPS is an informal group that gets together weekly to work on short, unusual math problems and practice explaining their solutions to each other, usually over pizza. Gatherings are a chance to share the enjoyment of mathematics in a setting outside that of required assignments and grades.
