Students seeking a BA in Mathematics must have fourth semester proficiency in a second language.
Since the BA degree is not science-intensive, students seeking the BA in Mathematics need not complete science requirements outside those specificed in the University general education requirements.
This option is meant for those students who intend to enter the job market upon graduation. Students who intend to use their mathematical skills should choose a minor in science or engineering in consultation with an advisor. Students choosing this option and an appropriate minor, or double major, can also go on to graduate school in a field of science or engineering.
THE CORE COURSES: Should be completed by the end of the sophomore year.
OPTION COURSES Both of the following courses:
- MATH 422 Advanced Applied Analysis
MATH 485 Mathematical Modeling
One of the following three sequences:
- MATH 454 Intermediate Ordinary Differential Equations
and
MATH 456 Applied Partial Differential Equations
or
MATH 464 Theory of Probability
and
MATH 466 Theory of Statistics
or
MATH 475a Mathematical Principles of Numerical Analysis
and
MATH 475b Mathematical Principles of Numerical Analysis
And a fifth 400-level course, chosen in consultation with your faculty advisor.
For complete listing of all degree requirements, see the Academic Program Requirements Report (APRR) in the university catalog.
