Mathematics plays a crucial role across various disciplines, from natural sciences and engineering to medicine, finance, computer science, and social sciences. Certain branches like statistics and game theory evolve alongside their practical uses, frequently categorized under applied mathematics. Academic pathways encompass applied and theoretical mathematics, operations research, statistics, and actuarial science.
At the graduate level, students specialize in computational operations research, a program overseen by the Computer Science Department.
The Standard Mathematics Concentration provides the greatest flexibility among the three available options, offering the broadest selection of elective courses. This track is popular among students planning graduate studies or careers in pre-college education, while also accommodating diverse academic objectives.
Following the Mathematical Association of America's guidance, the department advises mathematics majors to extend their studies beyond basic requirements by completing at least two additional 400-level mathematical science courses.
With strategic planning, students can develop a cohesive focus within their advanced studies. Typical specialization areas include:
Advanced Algebra: electives from MATH 332, 405, 408, 412, 430, and 432
Advanced Analysis: electives from MATH 403, 405, 416, and 428
Operations Research/Actuarial Science: electives from 323, 332, 413, 424, and 432
