Major Requirements


Mathematics Major

To graduate with a major in mathematics, a student must have at least a 2.0 grade-point average for all mathematics courses taken (excluding Mathematics 15, 16, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 55). A major will normally consist of eleven full courses in mathematics beyond Mathematics 11 and must include Mathematics 21 and 28. A major must also include at least one of Mathematics 39 or 41 and at least one of Mathematics 34 or 43. The remaining courses shall be chosen from among Mathematics 12, 13, 22, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46, 47 and 80. Mathematics 10, 15, 16, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 55 cannot be used to satisfy the requirements for the major. Students planning to major in mathematics are urged to complete through Mathematics 13 during their freshman year.


Computer Science - Mathematics Interdisciplinary Major

To graduate with a major in computer science - mathematics, a student must have at least a 2.0 grade-point average for all computer science courses taken (excluding Computer Science 16) and at least a 2.0 grade-point average for all mathematics courses taken (excluding Mathematics 15, 16, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 55). Majors must take Mathematics 11 (or 10 & 11S), 12, 13, 21, 22, and at least one from Mathematics 28, 34, 37 or 40. In addition, they must take Computer Science 11, 12, 22, 30, 44, and 49. A major may substitute Mathematics 28 for Computer Science 22.


Mathematics - Economics Interdisciplinary Major

To graduate with a major in mathematics - economics, a student must have at least a 2.0 grade-point average for all economics courses taken (excluding Economics 10) and at least a 2.0 grade-point average for all mathematics courses taken (excluding Mathematics 15, 16, 30, 31, 32, 33, and 55). Majors must take Mathematics 11 (or 10 & 11S), 12, 13, 21, 37, 47, and at least one from Mathematics 22, 28, 34, 40 or 41. In addition, they must take Economics 11, 31, 45, 46; one elective in economics numbered 32 or above; and either Economics 75 or 76. Majors are also advised to take Computer Science 11 and 49.
