The B.S. degree in mathematics has four concentrations. Students must complete general education and mathematics core requirements in addition to the specific requirements for one of the following concentrations:
- Mathematics Teacher Education Concentration: Students planning to teach mathematics at the secondary level should choose this concentration. Students complete a degree in mathematics which includes professional education requirements for secondary education licensure.
- Statistics Concentration: Students planning to pursue careers in industry or a field that utilizes statistics should choose this concentration.
- Computational Applied Mathematics Concentration: Students desiring a job in research or industry utilizing areas of mathematics other than statistics should choose this concentration.
- Mathematical Sciences Concentration: Students intending to pursue a graduate degree in mathematics should choose this concentration.
A student who plans to major in mathematics is encouraged to 1.) Obtain a program sheet from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics which outlines the specific requirements for the selected program of study, 2.) Read the catalog to determine other requirements for the degree he/she is seeking, 3.) Work closely with an advisor. The student, and not the advisor, is responsible for knowing the program requirements for the particular degree he/she is seeking.
