All calculus and differential equations courses include the use of mathematical software in the mathematical sciences laboratory. Students can choose to study neural networks with applications to artificial intelligence and other areas. Mathematical science graduates are prepared to pursue graduate work or take their place in industry along with scientists and engineers. Through ROTC, a student can earn a commission as a second lieutenant in the Active Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. The Army ROTC program is a general military science curriculum.
Instruction covers military fundamentals common to all branches of the service.
The program of instruction is designed to complement the student s academic goals of acquiring a baccalaureate degree in a course of study of his or her own choosing. The physics degree program covers an extremely broad range of subjects and areas of specialization that seek to unify and understand the physical world on a fundamental level. Emphasis in the space sciences undergraduate program is on achieving a broad but sound education in the basic physical, mathematical and engineering sciences, which will enable the student to successfully enter any of the many subfields of modern space science activity. The astronomy and astrophysics option is available for students who are interested in pursuing graduate studies in the astronomical sciences. The bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary science is intended for students who plan graduate study in professional fields, those who are interested in a broadly based degree oriented toward the sciences or engineering, former science and engineering students who want a degree with wider scope, and students seeking military careers.
