Saint Anselm College is a Catholic liberal arts college in the
Benedictine tradition. The College proposes to offer its students
access to an educational process which will encourage them to lead

The objectives of the Mathematics curriculum are: to develop the
attitude of mind required for efficient use and understanding of
mathematics; to enhance student ability to problem-solve with the
aid of quantitative models; to use technology to provide stimulating
opportunities for the student to experience mathematics
independently as a pattern-seeking science; and to provide sufficient
background for further studies in mathematics and related disciplines.
