Anne Kerian, PhD

Assistant Professor of 数学

数学 requires many habits of mind, including patience, 毅力, and openness to new ways of understanding. For those who persevere, the rewards include not only marketable skills but an encounter with the beauty of pure rational truth. As a teacher at the University of Mary I am privileged to work with students at all levels, from freshmen to seniors, as they develop their skills and encounter mathematics more fully.

Travis Wolf, PhD

Associate Professor of 数学, Fellow in Catholic Studies

I grew up in Bismarck, where I attended local Catholic schools, and I got B.S. 和Ph值.D. degrees in 数学 from the University of North Dakota (2007) and University of Iowa (2013), 分别. I am the founder and coordinator of the UMary Math Competition (a local high school math competition hosted by the University of Mary each fall), the founding and current faculty advisor to the UMary Math Club, the in-house coordinator for the North Dakota Science Bowl (hosted by the University every spring), and the Board Chairman for the North Dakota Chapter of the Society of Catholic Scientists.
