Our honors program is perfect for students eager to tackle advanced mathematical challenges. Cutting-edge courses are delivered in intimate classroom settings by distinguished faculty, spanning diverse topics across pure and applied mathematics. In addition to core subjects, we regularly provide specialized courses exploring breakthroughs in emerging areas like algorithmic theory, mathematical biology, cryptographic systems, and quantitative finance. Honors students frequently engage with our elite graduate program, with qualified undergraduates permitted to enroll in graduate-level coursework. Ultimately, the University of Michigan's mathematics honors program thoroughly equips you for success in prestigious graduate or professional schools nationwide, or for fulfilling careers across multiple disciplines (visit our Careers section to explore opportunities for math graduates). Students enrolled in the LSA Honors Program or approved by the Departmental Honors Committee can pursue an Honors Major in mathematics. This rigorous track fosters deeper mastery of abstract concepts and mathematical precision. Exceptional honors graduates may earn diploma distinctions including honors, high honors, or highest honors.
