Undergraduate Curricular Requirements

MATHEMATICS (B.S.)

Required course work includes the university requirements (see regulation J-3) and:

a. 3 credits (one course) in the Humanities in addition to the minimum university-wide core requirement of 14 credits in the humanities/social sciences, *
b. 3 credits (one course) in the Social Sciences in addition to the minimum university -wide core requirement of 14 credits in the humanities/social sciences, *

*Courses satisfying the humanities requirement are those dealing with the arts, literature, and philosophy. Courses satisfying the social science requirement are those courses dealing with a person’s social condition including social relations, institutions, history, and participation in an organized community. Refer to online degree audit system through Web registration system or your academic advisor for a listing of appropriate courses.

A student may substitute the successful completion of an academic minor or an area of emphasis of at least 14 credits approved by the Math Department.
