PROBLEM. ANALYSIS. SOLUTION.
Our computer science, mathematics and statistics faculty and instructors are top of the line, with credentials to rival other universities in and outside of Canada.
We offer Bachelor of Science undergraduate degrees in Applied Statistics, Computer Science and Mathematics. Both Master's and Doctoral levels of study are also available. Department faculty are currently working with students studying at each of these levels, many of whom are graduate students from around the world. Learn more about our majors and minors.
Undergraduate students may have opportunities to do research projects with our faculty, using modern facilities, for hands-on experience. Several department faculty have independent research programmes supported by agencies such as NSERC and IBM Canada, and at times, there may be a collaboration with other disciplines.
During this unique time in the world, the University of Lethbridge may be a bit restrictive for personal visits, so please take the time to "meet" our faculty and instructors via the buttons directly below. We think you'll see the Department of Mathematics & Computer Science offers a wide range of topics in each of our disciplines, and we're confident you will find something to appeal to your intellectual interests.

Department Highlights
Number Theory Seminar
Antoine Leudiere
University of Calary
TOPIC: Point counting without points (again)
Date: Wednesday, November 26
Location: Markin Hall - M1060
Time: 1:30 - 2:30 pm
Drinfeld modules are the analogues of elliptic curves in positive characteristic. They are essential objects in number theory for studying function fields. They do not have points, in the traditional sense—we're going to count them anyway! The first methods achieving this were inspired by classical elliptic curve results; we will instead explore an algorithm based on so-called Anderson motives that achieves greater generality. Joint work with Xavier Caruso.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME!
Organizers: Emily Quesada-Herrera, Habiba Kadiri

Undergrad Info Session
Summer Research Jobs & Grad Study Opportunities for MATH & COMPUTER SCIENCE
Date: Monday, December 1
Time: 12:00 - 12:50 pm
Room: UHALL - A580
You are invited to an information session on opportunities for summer research positions in mathematics and computer science, as well as pathways to graduate study in these fields.
All interested undergraduate students are welcome to attend.
We will discuss what summer research jobs look like, how to apply, and how these positions can prepare you for future graduate programs in math and computer science.
Pizza and refreshments will be provided.
We hope to see you there!
GSA Teaching Award
Congratulations to Shirin Alimirzaei for receiving the 2025 Graduate Students' Association Teaching Award.
The annual GSA Teaching Awards recognize and honor graduate students at the University of Lethbridge who have demonstrated exceptional commitment and proficiency in their teaching roles. Eight student instructors were nominated this year, and each nomination required a letter of support from an undergraduate student, so this was well-earned.
This semester, Shirin has been running the three tutorials for MATH 1010 - Introduction to Calculus and helping run the four tutorials for MATH 1560 - Calculus I; quite the teaching workload for an already-busy PhD candidate!
