Facilities & Equipment

Huntington University opened a newly-constructed, 90,000 square-foot Science Hall for the Division of Natural and Mathematical Sciences in 2002. The new learning center features a quality learning environment with student-friendly spaces, teaching and research specialty equipment, well-designed laboratories and research spaces, and multimedia classrooms in rich, art-infused aesthetic surroundings.

Networked IBM-compatible computers are used in the computer science courses. Computer laboratories are available for student use and provide opportunities for computer science majors to be lab assistants. Seniors are required to develop a software program for use by someone in the community. This program will actually be of need and utilized by the recipient.

Computers are also used in most math courses to help with visualization and tedious computations. Computer software used includes PC-Matlab, Math Plot packages, Gyro Graphics, the Geometric Super Supporter, and Derive. These programs are available to the students both inside and outside of class. Industrial internships are available during the summer and January term.

An advantage of Huntington University’s mathematics department is its size. Class size ranges from 3 to 15 students and allows for a great deal of personal attention and assistance. Professors are willing to take the time to explain difficult material and provide outside instruction when needed. Students are challenged to learn and are helped to succeed.

Huntington is a Christian college of the liberal arts.
