Other Requirements and Recommendations

• Students interested in graduate study are strongly advised to take MATH 1530 - ADVANCED CALCULUS 1  and MATH 1540 - ADVANCED CALCULUS 2 . These two courses may be substituted for the Applied Analysis and the Differential Equations courses, respectively.
• Students interested in pursuing secondary education certification should take the following courses in addition to the courses required for the major.
  • MATH 0430 MATH 0430 - INTRO ABSTRACT ALGEBRAIC SYSTEMS  
  • MATH 1020 MATH 1020 - APPLIED ELEMENTARY NUMBER THEORY  
  • MATH 1230 MATH 1230 - THE BIG IDEAS OF MATHEMATICS  
  • MATH 1290 MATH 1290 - TOPICS IN GEOMETRY  
• A grade of C or higher is necessary in all courses required for the major. A minimum GPA of 2.0 in departmental courses is required for graduation.
• Students must complete at least one writing-intensive course (W-course) in the major.
• No course that counts toward the major may be taken on the S/NC basis.
• Students must complete at least 12 credits in a related area. A minor in Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics, Physics, or Statistics would fulfill this requirement. Speak to the departmental advisor for more options or details.
• Honors in Applied Mathematics is granted if the student:
  • Completes all requirements for the major
  • Completes the following courses with a letter grade of B or higher:
    • MATH 1470 MATH 1470 - PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 1  
    • MATH 1530 MATH 1530 - ADVANCED CALCULUS 1  
    • MATH 1540 MATH 1540 - ADVANCED CALCULUS 2  
    • A 2000-level course in lieu of a 1000-level elective
  • Completes an honors thesis under the direction of a member of the Department of Mathematics faculty, or completes a 2000-level course in lieu of the honors thesis.
• The statistics requirement is waived for students seeking honors in Applied Mathematics.
