The Q-Center supports growth and confidence in quantitative skills. Bring a group to study or join a drop-in session.

The newly renovated Q-Center is now open! Note that we are having some large furniture installed this week, so the Center will be noisier than usual during certain hours, but we are still open!

Reasons to Visit the Q-Center 

The Quantitative Center is a destination for student support in BiHall! The “Q”-Center is located on the first and second floor, and it is available for long hours Sunday through Friday.

You are invited to use the Q-center to:

  • Study in one of the open spaces or in the Quiet Study Room
  • Groups of students are welcome to use the Q-Center, regardless of if you are attending a tutoring session. It is an excellent space for group studying and projects!
  • Use the computer lab on the first floor of the Q-center
  • Request general quantitative support from a Q-STEM tutor (this includes support in excel or other software)
  • Attend specific topic STEM help sessions offered during the semester
