People have studied mathematics for more than 2,000 years, and it remains a vibrant and expanding field where new ideas are still changing the way we understand the world. And as we gather ever more data, statistics has become an essential tool for creating knowledge and making decisions. Study Mathematics and Statistics at Victoria and be part of a fascinating and creative world.

Stefanka - delete brackets in pull quote:

"I try to stimulate and enhance student's learning by assigning...."

Delete the para beginning "Stafanka is involved...." and replace with: (and join to following para like so - )

Stefanka teaches a mixture of undergraduate and postgraduate courses. “I really enjoy interacting with my students—it gives me great pleasure and satisfaction. I try to stimulate and enhance their learning by assigning projects, challenging problems and activities that lead to little discoveries.”

We use logic in most of what we do in both our personal and professional lives. Logic is the study of reasoning—what is good or correct reasoning, and bad or incorrect reasoning. You'll focus on how an answer to a problem is arrived at, rather than whether it is true or false. You don't need to have any prior knowledge of maths to study Logic.

•  Tymara Oberdries (Unlicensed) The Logic subject block is also used on the Philosophy topic http://stage.victoria.ac.nz/explore/study-areas/philosophy/study - Please make sure that the change flows through to that page too. I don't think the Philosophy topic is live yet.
