Applied Mathematics

By its nature, applied mathematics is defined not by what it is but by what it does. It’s being able to use mathematics to solve real-life problems and make an impact in the world in areas such as engineering, industry, science, and human-centered problems.

Gordon Lecture Series

The Doris G. Gordon Lecture Series is named in honor of Doris Gilbert Gordon, a high school mathematics teacher and a friend of Denison. Newark attorney L. James Gordon (’50) and his sister, Janet Gordon Forbes (’55), established the Doris G. Gordon fund in memory of their mother who had a great love of mathematics.
