B.S. in Applied Mathematics

(HEGIS 1703)

The B.S. in Applied Mathematics is intended to provide students with an outstanding quantitative foundation. The degree prepares students for employment in industries that require strong analytical skills, including but not limited to, engineering, economic analysis, pharmaceutical research, biotechnology, aviation and scientific computer programming. The program also does an outstanding job in preparing students for graduate study in mathematics, both pure and applied.

The B.S. in Applied Mathematics major requirements consist of 39 credits. Each student must then choose one of the four tracks consisting of 24 credits: Computational Mathematics, Aviation Science, Mathematical Economics or Bioengineering, for a total of 63 credits.
