The following is a list of some of our past graduates and where they are today.  The purpose of this list is two-fold:

(1) enable alumni to stay in contact with each other, and
(2) create a resource for our current students.

Alumni:  If you graduated from Southwestern University with a major in Mathematics or Computer Science OR if you are working in a Math or Computer Science related field please fill out the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science Alumni Information Survey (disabled temporarily -- stay tuned).

Current Students: You can click on the highlighted names to e-mail our alumni. They have generously offered to answer questions concerning careers, graduate school, selection of a major or their time at Southwestern University. We encourage you to take advantage of their willingness to help.

Comments from our Alumni  (Including Their Most Valuable Experience at SU)
