Mathematics Degree Programs
Bachelor of Science (BS) and Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Mathematics
Here at ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼, we believe in three guiding principles for all students in the mathematics degree program:
- To promote critical thinking and analytic problem solving, not just in the mathematics classroom, but in everyday situations and events
- To develop advanced mathematical aptitude and reasoning skills to prepare the student for mathematics-based endeavors beyond the classroom
- To prepare the students for success in all coursework by stressing the importance of reasoning and problem solving.
Our mathematics program doesn't just prepare you for success in mathematics; it prepares you for success in life. We strive to create a supportive environment where students work with faculty to gain confidence in technique and independent thinking.
Why Math at ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼?
¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼’s math programs offer many unique opportunities. MAPLE, the symbolic manipulator, is available in calculus and post calculus courses to enhance the student experience. Students can also solve real-life statistics problems using innovative statistical software such as Minitabs.
Students pursuing a degree in mathematics education may work as tutors and graders alongside faculty. Additionally, each mathematics major will be required to present a research paper as part of a seminar during their senior year. Research is a crucial part of the mathematics discipline and will be conducted under the supervision of a mathematics faculty member.
Mathematics students have the opportunity to join ¼«ËÙÁùºÏ²ÊÀúÊ·¿ª½±¼Ç¼'s Math Club and participate in activities such as the Math Olympiad and the Calculus Showdown with community high school students.
