Facilities
Computer Facilities:
There are a variety of computer clusters on the campus,
two of which are located in Carnegie. One of these is for the use
of students in Mathematics courses and is available for classes,
seminars and individual use.
A second small computer cluster, located in room 218 Carnegie,
is reserved for the exclusive use of mathematics graduate students.
It provides all mathematics and mathematics education students with
access to standard personal productivity software and e-mail.
Library Facilities: The Erik Hemmingsen Mathematics Collection
Housed on the third floor of Carnegie, our mathematics library contains over 47,000 volumes, maintains subscriptions to some 320 research journals, and owns complete sets of most of the important journals. Mathematical Reviews are researchable on a CD-ROM or via the World Wide Web. A computer terminal in the library enables users to search for volumes located within all branches of the University system.
Carnegie Hall Facilities:
The main offices for the Mathematics Department and the Mathematics Education programs are housed in the Carnegie Library. Carnegie, as it is called, was completed in 1905 and until 1973, served as the Syracuse University Library. A striking feature of the building, is the central, skylighted atrium that runs up from the second floor. It contains a giant reading room with 24 large, well-lit hardwood tables complimenting the ornate late-Victorian decor of the hallways, ceilings and stairways. Faculty, graduate students and undergraduates often congregate in the reading room for informal conversations. Faculty offices are located in Carnegie or the Physics building next door, while graduate students have offices either in Carnegie or in the adjacent Archbold Building.
