Course descriptions
The Mathematics Department offers programs of study in Mathematics, Applied Mathematical Sciences, Actuarial Science (in cooperation with the School of Business), Mathematical Statistics (in cooperation with the Department of Statistics), and Mathematics – Physics (in cooperation with the Department of Physics). MATH 2010Q, 2011Q, 2705W, 2720W, 2794W, and 3670W and STAT 3494W may not be counted in any of the major groups listed below.
Degrees
- Mathematics (BS/BA)
- Applied Mathematical Sciences (BS/BA)
- Mathematics-Statistics (BS/BA)
- Mathematics-Actuarial Science (BS/BA)
- Mathematics-Actuarial Science-Finance (BS/BA)
- Mathematics-Physics (BS)
The Department offers both Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Arts degrees in Mathematics, Applied Mathematical Sciences, Mathematics-Statistics, and Mathematics-Actuarial Science, and Mathematics-Actuarial Science-Finance, and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics-Physics. The Bachelor of Science program provides in-depth training in Mathematics as preparation for graduate study or for participation in scientific and engineering teams in government, industry, or research laboratories. The Bachelor of Arts degree is designed to provide training in contemporary mathematics without the depth and concentrated specialization required for the Bachelor of Science program. To satisfy the writing in the major and information literacy competencies in the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, the Bachelor of Arts in Applied Mathematical Sciences, and the Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematical Sciences, all students must pass one of the following courses: MATH 2705W, 2710W, 2720W, 2794W, 3670W, 3710W, or 3796W.
