The mathematics department provides two degree options: the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Science. Both curricula share foundational mathematics coursework and equip students for advanced mathematics studies. The Bachelor of Arts program emphasizes mathematical applications in arts and humanities disciplines. Meanwhile, the Bachelor of Science program offers specialized tracks including actuarial science, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, systems analysis, and preparation for graduate studies.

Several tracks cater to students pursuing mathematical careers in business, industry, or public sector roles. The degree programs offer adaptable requirements to accommodate diverse academic interests. Students should consult with faculty advisors to choose their specialization track, ideally by their second undergraduate year.
