Mathematics encompasses various disciplines such as geometry, algebra, and calculus, which examine numbers, patterns, dimensions, and transformations.
At Brown University, mathematics students can investigate these ideas through the department's diverse curriculum and adaptable program requirements. The program culminates in either a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree (with the BS being particularly advised for those considering advanced studies in mathematics or similar areas). Students start with foundational courses in multivariable calculus, linear algebra, and abstract algebra. After completing these core requirements, they can select from numerous upper-level courses (1000 and 2000 series) aligned with their academic interests. Additionally, undergraduates may choose to undertake a thesis project.
