The Mathematics Major
Slightly Modified Major Requirements
Current major requires 32 credits, but is largely determined by
requirements at the 300-400 level
-
4 courses required, including
-
MTH 321 and 316 (the "Foundations" courses)
-
A year sequence: MTH 321-324, 321-326, 316-331, 316-338, or 335-336
-
4 courses to reach the 300-400 level:
-
MTH 131, 133, 215
-
One of MTH 218 or 220
-
Currently, students starting after MTH 131 may count CS courses toward 32
credits
BUT students needing more than 4 additional credits strongly
advised to take upper-level math -
-
In restructured environment, only 4 credits of CS could count toward math
major
Additional Visibility for Statistics
Department will have the name:
-
Department of Mathematics and Statistics
Some Additional Flexibility
College specifies that no more than 48 credits in a department may count
toward the 124 credits needed for graduation
-
Currently, computer science counts toward math-major credits
-
In restructured environment, computer science separate from math credits
Double majors in mathematics and computer science:
-
Currently prohibited
-
In restructured environment, follows normal application process
