Description/Abstract
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University has had a mathematics major for only one year. Nevertheless, the presenters have managed to involve ERAU undergraduates in a variety of research activities over the past ten years. These range from conferences funded by the National Science Foundation, to student projects funded by the Florida Space Grant Consortium, to unfunded informal student mentoring. The presenters will discuss the challenges and opportunities and challenges they have faced in enriching students’ mathematics studies in an undergraduate institution with no mathematics major.
