成人直播

The Department of Mathematical Sciences is an integral part of the strong liberal arts tradition at the 成人直播. We believe a student's education is enriched by studying mathematics, and our courses support the College of Arts and Sciences Core Curriculum. Our Applied Mathematics major and minor programs provide a solid foundation in contemporary mathematics which prepares students to pursue further study and careers in the mathematical sciences and other quantitative and analytical fields. The Department鈥檚 faculty mentor student research and are active in original scholarship. Through consulting and research collaborations, we are a resource for students and faculty across the University.

The Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics provides a well-rounded, liberal arts-based education focused on the application of the mathematical sciences for inquiry and problem solving. The program places emphases on mathematical modeling and statistical methods, and project-based approaches. The curriculum integrates computational and theoretical approaches to enable students to experience both the power and the beauty of mathematics for problem-solving and exploration. This major gives students the quantitative and analytical skills to support careers in the sciences, business, finance, health, government, and many other fields. The program also prepares students for advanced study in the applied mathematical sciences. Students interested in a double major will find Applied Mathematics to be an excellent complement to majors in the natural sciences and other fields, as many fields continue to experience an increasing reliance on mathematics. 

*Students who are inclined toward and have demonstrated the potential for research will have the option to take MAT 480 Mathematics Research Seminar instead of MAT 490 Topics in Mathematics. 

Students wishing to pursue teacher certification in Math can complete a double major with Applied Mathematics and Secondary Education OR a major in Secondary Education and a concentration in Applied Mathematics.  For more Information, see the Secondary Education catalog page.

Students in this major can participate in the pre-health graduate school preparation tracks.

Students completing the Applied Mathematics major will:

1. use  mathematical reasoning, modeling, and statistical methods to explore, represent, and communicate about quantitative relationships;
2. apply quantitative methods to solve problems in a variety of disciplines;
3. develop proficiency with computer algebra, statistical, and geometric software to investigate mathematical concepts and applications;
4. prepare mathematical documents for dissemination in written and presentation formats;
5. gain analytic and technological skills to support careers in mathematics and related areas, and graduate and professional study.

Students wishing to declare an Applied Mathematics minor should complete a course plan in consultation with a Mathematical Sciences faculty member.

We offer qualified students the option of graduating with Honors. This includes significant research, scholarship or creative activity under the direction of a faculty member. Interested students should consult with their major advisor. 

Courses previously completed at another accredited college can be transferred to this degree program. Transferred mathematics courses must be reasonably close in scope and content to the mathematics courses offered at 成人直播 in order to count as exact equivalents. Otherwise, they will transfer as general electives. All Science/Math courses previously completed must be no older than five years. See Undergraduate Admissions also.
