Rigorous research

Challenging math research opportunities are available throughout your academic year and even throughout the summer months if you’re really into it! Mathematics professors enjoy collaboration and devote lots of time to making mathematical discoveries with you. Students present their work in a professional environments at national and state mathematical conferences, at the annual Spring Math Retreat, and at the university-wide Celebration of Excellence in Research and Creative Activity (CERCA).

Check out the stories and list below for a few examples of research projects that have been completed by students and faculty.

We're all about research

UW-Eau Claire has an entire office dedicated to research! The Office of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP) facilitates research opportunities between students and faculty — they can help you get that great research idea off the ground. Showcasing all that impactful research is important too. The Celebration of Excellence in Research and Creative Activity (CERCA) is an annual multi-day event that celebrates all the wonderful research students and faculty do both on and off campus. Explore our research opportunities and find something for you!
