By combining a strong background in the mathematical sciences with appropriately chosen study in related disciplines, the programs allow the student, with professional guidance, to prepare for desired career objectives. The department has Bachelor of Science advisory committees to review and approve individual programs of study, and each student is assigned an advisor. Degree candidates should seek approval of their program of study as early as possible in their career, but no later than three semesters before intending to graduate. For additional information, contact the chairperson of the Department of Mathematical Sciences. The department offers honors courses which are offered to all students who have exhibited to the faculty outstanding ability and interest in mathematics.
Honors courses carry full credit toward the major or, for non-majors, full elective credit.
A career support emphasis of at least 18 hours from disciplines outside mathematical sciences. Related course work may be outside mathematical sciences but must be approved by advisory committee. A career support emphasis of at least 18 semester hours from disciplines outside mathematical sciences. A candidate for the Bachelor of Arts degree may count NOT more than a total of 40 hours above core curriculum requirements in mathematics. PHY 1150-1151, CI 3080, and RE 4630.
