Mathematics, B.S.


The B.S. degree in mathematics reflects contemporary trends in mathematics by incorporating computer science, mathematical and computational modeling, natural science and statistics courses. This degree is particularly appropriate for students who wish to proceed toward careers in industry concentrating on analytical problem solving, or toward graduate schools in any mathematical science area. Computer science, economics, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, management science, physics and chemistry provide attractive opportunities as areas for a double major with mathematics. With a minimum of 21 approved advanced hours in the major (i.e. 3000-level and above) the following courses are required:

Requirements for the Major


Specialization (12 Credit Hours)


At least two courses at the 4000+ level from one specialization, including at least one MATH 4000+ course.

Applied and/or Numerical Mathematics:


Two courses from the following:

Advanced Mathematics Elective (3 Credit Hours)


Any additional 3000+ MATH course. For students in the Computer Science, Engineering, and Operations Research specializations it is strongly recommended that the elective be a second course from the list of MATH courses marked “One course from the following.”

Total: 42 Credit Hours
