The Chandler Senior Experience

As a senior you will engage in a one-term independent study, working on a topic of your choice under the guidance of a faculty member. You’ll demonstrate your ability to learn and apply mathematics with little supervision and to clearly and cogently express this knowledge both verbally and in writing.

Recent Senior Experience projects include:

  • Symmetry and Quantum Mechanics
  • Knot Theory and Math Blogging: All Four Proofs that the Borromean Rings Cannot be Formed Using Perfect Circles 
  • Random Forests and Baseball: An Examination of Exit Velocity and its Predictors
