1. What is the curriculum?

Geometry

2. What undergraduate degrees do you offer?

Undergraduate degrees include the B.A. and B.S. in mathematics, and the B.S. in mathematics and computer science. We also offer an 18-credit minor in mathematics.

3. What types of courses make up the undergraduate major?

A mathematics major consists of the three course calculus sequence (MATH 71, 72, 73), Introduction to Higher Mathematics (MATH 114), Linear Algebra (MATH 135A), Higher Algebra I (MATH 145), and Advanced Calculus I (MATH 171). In addition, either Higher Algebra II (MATH 146) or Advanced Calculus II (MATH 172) is required, plus 12 more credits (usually four courses) of upper level electives chosen under advisement. Students pursuing a B.S. have additional requirements. For more details, see the Programs part of the Mathematics Department web site.

4. What types of courses make up the undergraduate minor?

A mathematics minor consists of the three course calculus sequence (MATH 71, 72, 73), plus 6 more credits (usually two courses) of upper level electives chosen under advisement. For more details, see the Programs part of the Mathematics Department web site.

5. What types of courses are available for students not pursuing a degree in mathematics or the sciences?

We have several courses that are not intended for majors in mathematics or the sciences. Courses for distribution credit include Elementary Mathematical Models through Computers (MATH 13C), First Year Seminar (MATH 14F and 14S), Mathematical Excursions (MATH 30A), Explorations in Mathematics (MATH 30B), Linear Mathematics and Matrices (MATH 40), Elementary Set Theory, Logic and Probability (MATH 45), and Basic Calculus (MATH 61 and 61A). Distribution credit is also given for Precalculus (MATH 50), which is intended for those who wish to take MATH 71 but need additional preparation. We also offer Elementary Mathematical Statistics (MATH 8) plus several courses designed for those who need more preparatory work.

6. Do you offer graduate degrees?

Yes, we offer the M.S. in applied mathematics and the M.A. in mathematics. The M.A. in mathematics can be completed with or without a thesis. All graduate courses are offered at night.

7. What types of courses make up the graduate program?

All mathematics graduate students take Linear Algebra (MATH 211) and Analysis I (MATH 221). Beyond that, students take either eight or nine other courses, depending upon their program, which can include such areas as abstract algebra, probability, statistics, ordinary and partial differential equations, and complex analysis. The M.S. requires a thesis, and the M.A. requires either a thesis or an oral comprehensive examination.

8. What types of careers can students expect after they graduate from the program?

Many of our math majors have successful careers in education, industry, finance, law, medicine and actuarial science. Others have careers in mathematics or choose to enroll in graduate programs to pursue careers in mathematics.

9. Do many students continue on to graduate school?

Yes, many students enroll in graduate programs to pursue careers in teaching and advanced industrial research. Students also pursue graduate programs in other fields, including business and statistics.

10. How do I find out more about becoming a math teacher?

11. Are there opportunities to work with faculty on research projects?

Yes, students are given opportunities to participate in a variety of research projects.

12. Who would a student contact for information about the senior honors thesis?

13. Can I get credit for advanced placement exams?

Yes, we offer credit for advanced placement exams in both calculus and statistics.

14. What is VEE accreditation?

To become an actuary, certain courses in economics, finance, and applied statistical methods must be taken for Validation by Education Experience (VEE) with a grade of B- or better.

15. Is mathematics tutoring available?

16. Who would a student contact with questions about the math labs?
