B.S. in Mathematics
As a part of the requirements for a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics, the student must complete MATH 2103, 2574, 3083, 3113, 3404, 4513, and CSCI 1023/1021L. In addition for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics, the student is required to complete one of the following options:
- A program for the student who wishes to prepare for either industrial work in mathematics or graduate work in some field other than mathematics or statistics.
- A program for the student who is seeking a broad background in mathematics or who wishes to study mathematics at the graduate level.
- A program for the student who wishes to emphasize statistics or who intends to study statistics at the graduate level.
The courses required to satisfy option 1 are: MATH 3423, either MATH 4353 and 4363 or STAT 3013 and 4003, plus three semester hours of electives from mathematics courses numbered above 3000. Strongly recommended electives in this program are MATH 4523 and 3443
The courses required for option 2 are: MATH 4523, two of MATH 3443, 4113, 4703, and three hours of electives from mathematics courses numbered above 3000.
The courses required for option 3 are: MATH 3353, STAT 3013, 4003, 4001, 4033, and 4043. Strongly recommended electives in this program are STAT 5103 and 5113.
All of the electives used in fulfilling the requirements for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics must be approved by the student's adviser.
The science requirement for the Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics consists of two of the course sequences as listed:
- BIOL 1003/1001, 1013/1011 (may substitute BOTY 1013/1011 and ZOOL 1004)
- CHEM 1103/1101L, 1123/1131L
- CSCI 1033, 2013, (prerequisite CSCI 1023/1021L)
- GEOL 1113/1111L, 1133/1131L
- PHYS 2053/2051L, 2073/2071L (College Physics will not substitute)
In addition, one advanced course must be chosen from one of the chosen areas. Courses taken to satisfy the requirement must be approved by the Department of Mathematical Sciences.
A 2.00 cumulative grade-point average on all work completed in the Department of Mathematical Sciences will be required for graduation of a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics.
