Master mathematics as a practical problem-solving approach across industrial, laboratory, and technological environments. This Bachelor of Science program from the Mathematics Department features two specialized tracks:
Applied and Pure Mathematics
The Applied and Pure Mathematics track offers a classic foundation ideal for diverse mathematical careers. Those aiming for graduate studies in mathematics, physics, or careers involving mathematical modeling in industry or research labs may find this concentration particularly suitable.
Computational Mathematics
The Computational Mathematics track delivers comprehensive mathematical training focused on using computer and mathematical models to address real-world challenges. Graduates from this program will be prepared for roles in actuarial firms, financial sectors, machine learning industries, or advanced studies in computational fields like computer science, engineering, or medical research.
Program requirements include Core, Concentration, Capstone, and Science components. (General BS degree prerequisites are detailed under Concentration Requirements.) All concentrations share these foundational requirements except for the Concentration-specific elements.
