NDNU offers PC,
Mac, and Unix labs.

The Mathematics and Statistics curriculum at Notre Dame de Namur University provides solid preparation to meet career and life goals. Students in mathematics and statistics classes build their analytical and computational competences and engage in active learning as they learn to link mathematical and statistical concepts with practical problems.

While they enhance their abilities to analyze and solve problems, organize data, and understand number relationships, students are developing their critical thinking skills and creativity. All undergraduate students must satisfy the Core Curriculum Requirement in Mathematics and many students have additional mathematics and statistics requirements in their majors. Before enrolling in any Mathematics or Statistics course, except MTH7003, all students must demonstrate appropriate preparation. See Placement and Diagnostic Tests: Mathematics for further information.
