<p>Post this again on the Dartmouth forum.</p>

<p>As a current student, I've been told that the math department here is mostly great with a few drawbacks. We offer many challenging courses with highly-qualified professors. The department is relatively small so math majors get lots of attention. The biggest downside I've heard about is that some of the profs give dry lectures.</p>

<p>Also, many students take Math and Social Sciences courses. These seem especially interesting because they combine social science disciplines such as economics with advanced mathematical concepts.</p>

<p>In general, Dartmouth is very undergrad focused. All profs are there to teach undergrads, not graduates. And while many of them conduct research, this is not their primary focus.</p>

<p>Check out the department website here:

<p>Its a strong department. Additionally Dartmouth, being undergrad focused, sets its grads up very well for top grad schools (its top 7 in grad placement) and recruiting (its right after HYP when it comes to recruiting).</p>
