The Department of Mathematics offers three majors:

Math Education Program

The Mathematics Education degree fulfills all the requirements for a state teaching certificate in addition to providing the student with a strong background in mathematics. Students who choose this major are well prepared either to enter the teaching field immediately upon graduation or to go to graduate school. The Mathematics Education major takes thirty-one semester hours of mathematics, thirty-three semester hours of education, three semester hours of statistics and three hours of computer science.

Math Program

The Mathematics major has been designed to accommodate a wide variety of career options and to encourage students to pursue a second area of interest by means of a double major, a double minor, or a combination of concentrations. A major in Mathematics coupled with a strong minor in accounting, biology, business, chemistry, computer science, economics, physics, psychology, sociology, or statistics uniquely fits one for a number of career choices as well as for graduate school. A Mathematics major takes 42 semester hours of mathematics, three hours of statistics and three hours of computer science.

Statistics Program

The Bachelor of Science in Statistics program is designed to prepare students for graduate studies in statistics and provide skills that are essential for research, business, and the great number of jobs that are available in statistics. The program requires thirty semester hours in statistics, twenty-four semester hours of mathematics, three semester hours of computer programming, and three semester hours of data science.
