Applied Mathematics, BS


Return to Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences Return to: Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences

Mathematics has been described as the Queen of the Sciences. Mathematics is the language of quantitative information and structure. Quantitative information is acquired, classified and processed according to mathematical models of physical phenomena with mathematical tools. There is a wide range of applications even of the most pure of mathematical disciplines. Cryptography is based on algebra, signal processing is based on Fourier analysis, and important applications have arisen from topology to physics. Our department offers unique research opportunities for undergraduates in mathematical biology, scientific computing, and finance mathematics as well as algebra, geometry, and analysis.

The Applied Mathematics major requires the completion of 41 credits in mathematics distributed as follows.
