Multiply Your Opportunities

Mathematics is the science and study of numbers, shapes and spaces and how they apply to the universe in which we live.

Why Study Mathematics: Mathematicians have the opportunity to make a lasting contribution to society by helping to solve problems that affect our daily lives. Weather forecasters, software programmers and ecologists apply mathematical principles every day in very different ways.

GPC prepares its students to transfer to a four-year college or move directly into the job market. Math clubs and programs such as  STEM or MESA help to increase academic performance. Students also have opportunities to compete in national tests sponsored by the American Mathematical Association and opportunities for tutoring,  scholarships and grants.

“My teachers encouraged me to ask questions and taught me to never give up.  GPC is the foundation of my college career.”

Kinnari Patel, GPC Alumna who is working on a doctorate in Mathematics at Emory University
