Who we are and What we can do for you

The Math Center provides free support for learning mathematics, statistics and Java programming at Metropolitan State University. Students, faculty and staff can come to the Math Center for group work, individual practice and tutoring assistance. Many students come to the center on a regular basis to work on homework and other practice problems.

  • Tutors are available to work with individuals and groups during drop-in hours. The schedule changes each semester; contact us for the current hours.
  • Appointments are available for individual help with specific questions. We prefer that you make appointments at least 24 hours in advance.
  • Handouts for the TI-83 or TI-83-Plus graphing calculator and other topics for math and statistics courses are available on-line and in the Math Center.
  • Note that the schedule for the Java tutors and the Logic tutors are separate from the schedule for the Math Center.
