MAJOR REQUIREMENTS
Students may pursue either a Bachelor of Science degree or a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics.  The AGEC-S is required for the B.S. degree.  Either the AGEC-A or the AGEC-S is acceptable for the B.A. degree.

For the B.S. degree in mathematics, students must complete a sequence of calculus-based physics courses or six units of course work outside of math that requires at least first semester calculus as a prerequisite.  If a sequence of physics courses is used to satisfy this requirement, those courses will also satisfy the General Education requirement in the Natural Sciences.

Mathematics

• Calculus^† -- MAT 220* or 221*, 230* or 231*, 241*
• Linear Algebra -- MAT 225
• One of the following computer science courses:
  CIS 162, 162AA, 162AB, 162AC, 163AA; CSC 100, 100AA, 100AB, 110, 110AA, 110AB, 150, 150AA, 200, 200AA, 200AB

* Common courses
^† The Calculus sequences [MAT220, MAT231 and MAT241] OR [MAT220, MAT230 and MAT241] OR [MAT221, MAT231 and MAT241] OR [MAT221, MAT230 and MAT241] are equivalent to one another. Transfer of an entire sequence is recommended.
