The Mathematical Sciences curriculum is designed to develop the analytic skills required for an understanding and efficient use of mathematics.
Courses involve an interplay of theory and application.
Computer and graphing calculators are integrated into the courses, and emphasis is placed on the development of problem-solving skills. Both programs provide the students with a thorough grounding in mathematics, while providing enough flexibility for the student to decide on the amount of emphasis to be given to computer science. Every student must demonstrate the attainment of reasonable proficiency in mathematics. Incoming students will take a proficiency exam, and the results will determine whether the student has attained the required level or will enter a developmental program and take the test again upon completing the program.
