Math

Math forges powerful tools which are used in every area of science.

More than just a study of numbers and a rote approach to equations and problems, mathematics will open new perspectives on your world that you never dreamed possible.

Imagine learning about the systems and structures that underpin all of nature, allowing you to develop a whole new way of looking at flowers and plants. Imagine learning about the fundamental structure of the universe, and the limits of human reason. Mathematics is a profound exploration of the cosmos and an adventure of the human spirit.

Mathematics is the exploration of abstract mental universes and the application of pure reason. Math involves logic, not just numbers. Computation (the ability to do calculations) is an important basic skill, but math is not about computation any more than English is about spelling or music is about playing scales.
