Mathematics is more than numbers and formulas — it is a way of thinking that opens doors to many fulfilling careers and opportunities. In this talk, I will highlight a range of jobs and career paths for math majors and share practical advice on how to choose among our B.S. in Mathematics program options so your studies align with your interests and long-term goals. Whether you are passionate about abstract reasoning, data science, teaching, or real-world applications, there is a path in mathematics that fits you.
L'Hopital's rule was not proved by L'Hopital, nor Wilson proved Wilson's formula. The Babylonians used the Pythagorean theorem 1,000 years before Pythagoras was even born. What is going on? Who names these things and why are there so many misnamed theorems?
We're all familiar with Pascal's Triangle, but what if Pascal had thought in 3D? We take a look at the 3-dimensional analogue of Pascal's Triangle, and as many of the interesting patterns it holds as we can fit in 5 minutes.
How do computers learn to use language? This talk will introduce how text is generated and the role probability plays in this process. We will go from counting words to shaping sentences and, eventually, to creating narratives.
