Course Requirements for the Major
The Mathematics major requirements vary, depending upon your class (graduation year)
| Class of 2007 and Later | |
| Preparation (if necessary) |
MT102 Calculus I (Math and Science Majors), or its equivalent (e.g., 4 or higher on the Calculus AP exam) MT103 Calculus II (Math and Science Majors), or MT105 Calculus II-AP (Math and Science Majors), or an equivalent (e.g., 5 on the Calculus BC AP exam). |
| Required Core Courses |
MT202 Multivariable Calculus |
| Core Course Substitution Notes |
Any student who may be qualified to "pass out of" the Multivariable Calculus course MT202 should discuss this possibility and its effect on his or her major requirements directly with the Undergraduate Vice Chair. |
| Required Elective Courses |
Six (6) Mathematics electives must be completed, chosen from MT courses numbered 400 and above. |
| GPA Requirement |
A grade point average of at least 1.67 must be achieved in the MT courses which make up your major. |
If you have a question about getting started in the major (for 99% of our students, this will be somewhere in the Calculus sequence MT102 - MT105 - MT202), please visit the Mathematics major Advisement pages of our Advisement Website.
We also have other pages targeted towards helping you plan your math program and/or make room your schedule if you're thinking about going abroad.
