The Math/Stats Help service of the University Learning Centre is located in the Murray (Main) Library, Room 144 (map).
The service is free of charge to all University of Saskatchewan students for help with University of Saskatchewan courses.
Services
Math/Stats help staff help students with a variety of mathematical or statistical topics, with a focus on first-year or introductory courses. Our service is primarily a drop-in service: students are welcome to drop in and work on homework, and ask questions when needed. Our service is designed for current University of Saskatchewan students looking for help with U of S courses. We also offer workshops or review sessions on certain topics in mathematics. These will be announced on this page and on PAWS.
Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to provide help with research-level statistics at this time. Please contact the Department of Mathematics and Statistics for advice on research-level statistics.
Announcements
We are open for Spring and Summer session (starting May 9). See below for our schedule.
