Other Requirements and Recommendations

• Before declaring this major, students must complete MATH 0230 - ANALYTIC GEOMETRY AND CALCULUS 2  or MATH 0235 - HONORS 1 - VARIABLE CALCULUS  , or their equivalents, with a letter grade of C or better. Additionally, Students must complete MATH 0470 - ACTUARIAL MATHEMATICS 1  with a letter grade of B or better to declare this major.
• A letter grade of C or higher is necessary in all courses required for the major.
• No course that counts toward the major can be taken on the Satisfactory/No Credit (S/NC) basis.
• Students must complete at least one writing-intensive course (W-course) in the major. MATH 1110 - INDUSTRIAL MATHEMATICS  is a W-course option for this major.
• The required courses include nine credits of statistics courses and nine to 12 credits of economics courses. Majors can fulfill the related area requirement by taking an additional statistics or economics course to achieve a total of 12 credits in one of these subjects.
