Advisement
All Mathematics majors should see the Mathematics Department to be assigned an advisor. They should meet with their advisors at least once a year to help plan their programs and check on their progress. Call 801-626-6095 for more information or to schedule an appointment. (Also refer to the Department Advisor Referral List.)
Admission Requirements
Declare your program of study (see Program of Study (Major/Minor) Declaration ) with your advisor. There are no special admission or application requirements for the Regular or Applied mathematics emphases. Mathematics Teaching majors must meet the Teacher Education admission and licensure requirements (see Teacher Education Department ).
General Education
Refer to Degree and General Education Requirements for either Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts requirements. PHYS 2210 will fulfill requirements for both the major and general education. PSY 1010 (3) in the Social Sciences area is recommended for the Mathematics Teaching emphasis.
Major Course Requirements for Mathematics BS or BA Degree
Mathematics Courses Required (30 credit hours)
Mathematics Electives (at least 12 credit hours)
Complete any upper division Mathematics courses (not including any required courses) so that required mathematics courses and mathematics electives total at least 42 credit hours.
Minor
A minor is required.
Support Courses Required (10 credit hours)
Graduate School Preparation
It is highly recommended that students planning on graduate work in Mathematics take Linear Algebra (MATH 3270 ) and Topology (MATH 4320 ) in addition to the above. See the Mathematics Department for counseling. |
