Mathematica Militaris

The Bulletin of the Mathematical Sciences Departments of the Federal Service Academies

Mathematica Militaris, in publication since 1989, serves as a forum for discussing issues concerning teaching mathematics at the Federal Service Academies. It provides faculty at the academies a venue for sharing their views and experiences in mathematics education. Contributions are always welcome. See the contact information below.

We are currently looking for submissions for the Spring 2009 issue. We would like to emphasize teaching with technology and the undergraduate research experience, but papers on other topics are always welcome. See the current call for papers for more details.
