How is the math major in Hamilton

<p>My dream is to get a Ph.D degree in a top university.
So I wonder what are the graduates major in math going?
Are there many students going to earn a higher degree in such schools as MIT,Princeton,Harvard?</p>

<p>Physics too.. Can go to Mit, caltech after physics undergrad at Hamilton? I want to double major in math and physics and get into grad school in either of the two..</p>

<p>Yeah,I am in the same situation as jhl.
I want to double major in both math and physics too.</p>

<p>Any response? From the hamilton site, i know of one or 2 who got into Mit physics after hamilton.. But that's not substantial enough to say that hamilton physics is strong..</p>

<p>The science departments are quite good and Hamilton has great facilities for them with a new "Science Center" built two years ago. Many, many '11ers are going the biology/chemistry/physics route.</p>

<p>But how about math?</p>

<p>Bump...so how is the math department?</p>

<p>bump again, please....</p>

<p>math is surprisingly strong at Hamilton</p>

<p>I'd say it's Hamilton's top or second best major</p>

<p>Out of all the faculty there, I can think of one bad teacher (maybe 2). Even then it's more of a personality thing, less of a qualifications/ability to teach thing.</p>

<p>Take Lemasurier or Knop or Kelly or Kantrowicz. They're dope.</p>

<p>Glad to hear that math is strong at Hamilton as S2 has applied there and really likes it. It is a beautiful campus and would be a great place for him. Time will tell but I know he really likes it there.</p>

<p>in my orientation group, which had 12 kids, it seemed like well over half were interested in either math, science, or some sort of combo. i was surprised by how many kids were into the subject.</p>
