Mathematics is the language of the sciences, a lan guage which allows scientists to quantify, model, understand and predict behaviour in an enormously diverse range of phenomena of interest. Simultane ously, Mathematics is often regarded as an art, as it is the creative study of patterns and of problem solving. Mathematics covers a wide range of disci plines including algebra, analysis, combinatorics and discrete mathematics, and differential equations.

At Bishop’s, we believe that historical knowledge serves an individual and society the way memory does. It gives us perspectives and insights into the world in which we live and presents us with the almost limitless range of ways humans have organized their lives. We also understand that the past is presented or re-presented in specific ways by historians and others, such as politicians and heritage advocates; as a result, we believe it is just as important to learn about and analyze historical interpretations as it is to learn about the past itself.
