Dr. Jongerius holds master's and doctoral degrees in mathematics, but she enjoys other languages as well. In fact, she combined her undergraduate math major with a major in English and a minor in German.
Dr. Jongerius has published papers in algebraic geometry/commutative ring theory. Sabbatical research led to "Rules and Insights: Connecting the Mathematical and Linguistic Abilities of C.S. Lewis," which combined math and literature, her two greatest academic loves. She also worked with a team of writers from the ACMS (Association of Christians in the Mathematical Sciences) on a book called Mathematics Through the Eyes of Faith, published in the summer of 2011 by HarperOne. Jongerius co-authored three of the chapters: "Infinity," "Dimension," and "Proof and Truth." Her most recent publication is "Pressure and Impulse in Student Learning: What I Learned From Teaching Physics."
