General Information
The Department of Mathematics at Cornell University is known throughout
the world for its distinguished faculty
and stimulating mathematical
atmosphere. The 43 tenured and tenure-track faculty represent
a broad spectrum of current mathematical
research, with a lively group of postdoctoral fellows and frequent
research and teaching visitors. The graduate
program includes over 70 graduate students from many different
countries. The undergraduate
program
includes several math major programs and a math minor. A wide
selection of courses are taught for
all types of users of mathematics.
Cornell is a private endowed university and the federal land-grant
institution of New York State, a member of the Ivy League, and a partner
of the State University of New York. On the Ithaca campus, nearly 21,000 students are enrolled in seven undergraduate
units and four graduate and professional units. Most of the 14,000 undergraduates will take at least one math
course during their time at Cornell.
The Mathematics Department is part of the College
of Arts and Sciences, a community of nearly 7,000 undergraduate and graduate students and 600 full-time faculty
in departments and programs that encompass the humanities, sciences,
mathematics, fine arts, and social sciences. Mathematics is located in Malott
Hall, in the center of the Cornell campus, atop a hill between two
spectacular gorges that run down to Cayuga Lake in the beautiful
Finger Lakes region of New York State.
