Beyond the Classroom

Per the National Survey of Student Engagement, early exposure to high-impact practices has produced greater gains in learning, graduation, and retention compared to what normally occurs with traditional instruction.

The Department of Mathematical Sciences at Cameron University strongly values High-Impact Practices and utilizes them to help our students develop communication, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills essential in a workplace. At the Department of Mathematical Sciences, students have opportunities to complete an internship or community-based project connecting classroom learning with real-world experiences and developing research skills and evidence-based analyses.

The Department of Mathematical Sciences provides the following High-Impact Practices: 

• Undergraduate Research
• Capstone Courses and Projects
• Project-Based Learning
• Internships
• Collaborative Assignments and Projects
