Dr. Margaret Menzin is Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science. She teaches a variety of courses in both disciplines which focus on the interplay between very abstract theory and concrete, real world applications. In Mathematics she is particularly interested in abstract and applied algebra, cryptography, and mathematical modeling; in computing her courses focus on data structures and data bases, and object oriented design.
Dr. Menzin has long standing interests in both pedagogy and encouraging women to pursue careers in mathematics and science. She has served on a variety of advisory boards to area public school systems, for NSF projects, and to national organizations. Dr. Menzin is often an invited speaker for both high school students and teachers.
