Degree Requirements

 

The department offers four different degrees in mathematics:

• The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics is designed to prepare students for graduate studies in mathematics
• The Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics is designed to provide flexibility in scheduling, especially for students wanting to pair their mathematics major with additional study of a discipline outside of the natural sciences
• The Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics (Teaching Emphasis) is designed to prepare students for a career in secondary mathematics education
• The Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics is designed to provide flexibility in scheduling for those students wanting to pursue a second major within the School of Natural Sciences

Additionally, the department also collaborates with the Physics and Education programs to offer a Bachelor of Arts in Physics/Mathematics (Teaching Emphasis).
