Our Department

This page will provide a brief overview of our Department and our general philosophy toward education.
There are several topics that could be discussed on this page of our web site. Two areas of interest are our excellent faculty, and our philosophy and mission for education.

Our Faculty

We have an experienced and dedicated group of professors. Each one strives to create a supportive and challenging classroom atmosphere to encourage students to participate. To learn more about each one individually, go to the Faculty page.

Our Mission

National-Louis University's Mathematics Department faculty are dedicated to the building of a firm foundation of mathematical skills in students with enthusiasm and care. They strive to provide students with opportunities to:

  • formulate and solve problems in the contexts of daily adult life, careers, and citizenship;
  • choose from a variety of mathematical methods and computer technologies to solve problems, and to recognize their natural limitations;
  • estimate, make conjectures and inferences, check results, select optimal solutions;
  • work with others in problem-solving situations;
  • communicate mathematics effectively both orally and in writing;
  • develop self-confidence in problem-solving; and to
  • experience mathematics as a valuable human endeavor


NLU Mathematics Department--where we value diversity, including mathematical people!
