In this paper the author outlines the extensive provisions that have been made for degreelevel studies in Mathematical Sciences under the auspices of the National Council for Technological Awards and the Council for National Academic Awards over the past sixteen years.doi:10.1080/0020739740050104...
Many problems in mathematical sciences are ‘easy to evaluate’, despite being typically ‘hard to solve’. For example, in computer science, NP-complete optimization problems admit a polynomial-time evaluation procedure (measuring the quality of the solution), despite the widespread belief that no ...

Women's under-representation in high-paying jobs in STEM fields (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) mirrors their earlier choices of matriculation electives: male students favour physics, information technology and advanced mathematics; female students favour life sciences. ‘Pipeline’ theori...
have decided that students need to pay for a good part of their higher education, and clearly we can just keep jacking up the prices, forcing them into greater and greater debt before they have even landed their first jobs. Someone has to pay for my retirement, and why should it be me...
Was there even a wave of serial killer cases or was the serial killer wave the product of news coverage and clever marketing by the FBI’s Behavioral Sciences Unit? Have serial killer cases declined in frequency and — if so — why?

the sciences as myself. During meals and breaks, we would discuss our intended graduate study goals as well as past research we had conducted thus far. I was given advice on what conferences to attend and which schools were best for certain master’s degree or Ph.D. programs. I ...
(e.g. wetlands, urban gardens/parks, and, partly, olive groves) that received systematically negative scores. In summary, Axis 1 delineates the latent relationship between structure and functions in a metropolitan landscape where the highest degree of patchiness is associated with less common (and...
In page 46, in the sentence “But polynomials only have as many degrees of freedom as their degree”, insert “with leading coefficient 1” after “polynomials”. In page 47, Exercise 3.7, the should be a , one should look at rather than ...
