A goal of the mathematics major is to prepare students for mathematical careers in business, government, education, or industry. All students pursuing mathematics majors complete elementary probability and statistics, the calculus sequence, linear algebra, a proofs course, and a course in professional skills for mathematicians and statisticians. Concentrations allow specialization beyond this core based on a student’s career goals.  

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics offers three concentrations, Mathematics (6911), Statistics (6912), and General Mathematics and Statistics (6914), leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in mathematics. The department offers five concentrations, Mathematics (6911), Statistics (6912), General Mathematics and Statistics (6914), Applied Mathematics (6915), and Actuarial Science (6916), leading to the Bachelor of Science degree with a major in mathematics. Students pursuing any concentration are required to complete general education requirements and the appropriate B.A. or B.S. requirements.  Students not prepared to enter calculus upon admission to the university may use elective hours to take college algebra, trigonometry, or both.  

For students pursuing a double major in both mathematics and computer science, MATH 340 /CSCI 340  may be allowed only in the requirements for a mathematics major or computer science major but not both.
