Rockhurst College recently received an NSF - Course and Curriculum Development grant (NSF-CCD Grant #9653093) to create interdisciplinary science projects for the three semester calculus sequence. The focus of their work is on the creation of well-defined projects which are more authentically connected (through introductory readings and carefully sequenced analytical activities) to their scientific disciplines. Additionally, projects emphasize the collection as well as the analysis of data using modern technologies such as computer algebra systems, universal lab interfaces and the Internet.

Three mathematics professors from Rockhurst College serve as Co-Principal Investigators on this grant. Of significance in the project development phase is the participation by members of an Interdisciplinary Science Council. Visit our bio page for descriptions of all grant participants.
