About the Engineering Math Resource Center:

Purpose: Help students become self-sufficient learners by (1) building confidence in mathematical capability, (2) presenting math in an engineering context, and (3) connecting students through teaching opportunities.

The Engineering Math Resource Center (EMRC) is a unique center developed for engineering students at Utah State University. Its role is to provide a bridge for students between the math they learn early on in their undergraduate degree and the engineering principles they explore in later courses. Students that visit the EMRC have been shown to be nearly twice as likely to persist in engineering than those that do not. Our work makes a difference!
