This talk illustrates capabilities in Mathematica 9 that are directly
applicable for use in teaching and research on campus. If you haven't seen
Mathematica lately, you will be surprised to see how  suitable Mathematica
is for projects and course examples in any  STEM, business and economics,
or liberal arts field. Attendees with no prior experience report that this
talk helps with getting started using Mathematica language and workflow.
With improvements like the new free-form input and expanded areas  like
finance, statistics, engineering, software development, and  image
processing, even the most advanced users report learning quite a bit from
Mathematica technical talks. All attendees will receive an electronic copy
of the examples, which can be adapted to individual projects. I’ll also
provide a free trial download.
