Bridge to Calculus program is recognized for its positive impact on Boston’s educational system
Bob Case, Emeritus Mathematics professor and alum of Boston public schools noted that students living in the city, coming from disadvantaged backgrounds, were not receiving the same caliber of mathematics education as their counterparts in the suburbs, so he decided to do something about it. In 1994, Bob Case founded Bridge to Calculus. This six-week […]

Solving Quantum Riddles: Dr. Sijia Dong is Using Machine-Learning to Overcome Challenges in Quantum Chemical Computation
Complex chemistry, Machine learning, and quantum mechanics are fields that take strong computers and a lot of time to understand. Dr. Sijia Dong is simplifying that process by uniting the three.
Understanding Networks: The power to predict pandemics, information spread, and quantum gravity
Dr. Krioukov’s lab recently published two papers in the field of network science. These papers show that (1) the geometry of networks can be elucidated by understanding the network’s latent properties and (2) For networks living in latent space, finding their geometry is possible using a previously known standard called Ollivier Curvature.
Alum Q&A: Kathleen Watt ’11
Kathleen Watt works for Insurance Brokerage Firm in New York City. Katie was a Mathematic major, Class of 2011 What made you interested in studying mathematics at Northeastern? Why do you believe this is a great choice for a major? “I am a little bit different in that I went into college searches knowing that […]
Undergraduate Student Experience Spotlight: Eddie Berman
I presented my abstract On Differentiable Correlation Functions at the American Astronomical Society Winter Session Meeting in Baltimore, MD. My work is important because it enables gradient-based optimization, enabling cosmologists to relate correlations to astrophysical model parameters. In my current extensions to this work, I have shown that it enables a new class of uncertainty quantification and alternatively […]
