The MacDonnell Prize in Computer Science and the McBrien Prize in Mathematics






The primary goal of the program in mathematics and computer science at Holy Cross is to enable students to become active participants in the study of fundamental and dynamic areas of human endeavor. The inherent structure and beauty of mathematics is at the core of all mathematical inquiry, but mathematics is also the quantitative language of the sciences and social sciences. Computer science is the study of algorithms, data structures, and their implementation in software and hardware systems. In our increasingly technology-driven society, mathematics and computer science are becoming part of our daily public discourse. In this context the Department works toward helping students to become knowledgeable and sophisticated learners, able to think and work independently, and to work productively in concert with their peers.

Holy Cross hosted the first Worcester Undergraduate Mathematics Symposium on April 14, 2007.
