Q. Why is maths so boring? A. A common question that we understand - one lecturer quotes a
student: "If I had only one day left to live I'd spend it in a maths
lecture ... it would make the time seem so much longer!". We try our
best to make mathematics as interesting and as relevant as possible and
are always open to suggestions for improvement. Maths is an important
part of many professions and of daily life. As we go through the course,
you can help to dispel boredome by contemplating the role of mathematical
thinking in your chosen degree and career.
