Mathematics & Physics
|  Mathematics is an essential component of the traditional liberal arts. From their inception in Greek thought, the liberal arts included arithmetic and geometry. In the medieval grouping of the seven liberal arts into trivium and quadrivium, the latter four were considered intrinsically mathematical in nature. The Greeks and medieval schoolmen considered mathematics as a propadeutic for higher studies. The abstraction, formality, and rigor of mathematical reasoning instill in the student habits of logic, precision, clarity, and patience. The study of mathematical objects disposes the student to the existence of immaterial forms. |

I knew Ave Maria would help me in my faith life, but what could they offer to make me more successful in my career? I already possessed the problem solving skills necessary for success in the business world, but I soon learned this would not be enough. Ave Maria helped me gain the necessary oral and written communication skills to put me a step ahead of my peers and to land a job with the world's largest consulting company." |
