Mathematics: Concentration in Applied Mathematics
|
|
 Return to: Mathematics Department Programs
The Applied Mathematics Concentration is structured around the premise that Mathematics is a useful tool in many academic areas. Students in this program are required to take upper-level courses in a second discipline of their choosing, and are encouraged to explore the connections between mathematics and this second discipline. By developing expertise in two areas, students will increase their options for future studies and employment after they graduate.
|
I. Required courses in the major—39-44 hours, including:
And 6 additional hours in Mathematics or Statistics at the 300-400 level
II. Required courses outside the major—18 hours:
And at least 15 hours, to include 9 hours at the 300-400 level
These courses must be from a discipline in which mathematical applications are important and must be approved by the department chair. III. Other departmental requirements:
Major competency is demonstrated in MATH 480. The course must be completed with a grade of C or higher to graduate.
