The Mathematics Department provides three degree options: a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, and a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics. This reflects mathematics' dual nature - it's both a profoundly deep and beautiful discipline with ancient roots, and an essential tool for comprehending our universe.

Mathematics studies will expose you to core areas like algebra, real and complex analysis, geometry, and topology, while also teaching practical applications of mathematical concepts. Our program features coursework in calculus, linear algebra, abstract algebra, real and complex analysis, topology, differential geometry, differential equations, number theory, combinatorics, statistics and probability, dynamical systems, numerical methods, modeling, and optimization. Mathematics majors graduate ready for advanced academic pursuits or careers in scientific research, finance, and actuarial science. No matter your direction, we hope you'll develop an appreciation for mathematics' intrinsic beauty. As Albert Einstein observed, "Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas."
