Students choosing to minor in mathematics should complete Math 2212, and Math 2215 and 9 semester hours of additional mathematics courses at the 3000 level or above. Students are urged to consult with members of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics to determine which courses would be most useful in their major area. In addition to immediate employment, there are opportunities for good students to pursue further study at the graduate level in mathematics, statistics, computer science, and other fields. Inc. Over the years the program has expanded to include many other firms. Hundreds of majors have benefitted from a co-op experience.
Majors have an opportunity for paid work experience related to their area of study.
They may also make important contacts that may lead to full-time employment after graduation.
