Course summary

This track is best suited for someone who likes mathematics and wants a degree in the field, but is perhaps studying another discipline as well so wants to minimize the number of hours and maximize the flexibility. This track requires a minor, so an individual majoring in say art, but loving mathematics can earn this degree counting art as the minor. Or perhaps a history major expects to do some mathematical analysis of historical events – then this is the perfect second degree.
