What will I learn?

Our applied mathematics course of study will prepare you for careers in business, industry, government or further study in mathematics. Applications from the sciences, industry and management are stressed in classical applied mathematics, operations research and statistics coursework. More traditional, pure mathematics plans of study are also available, providing a solid background in the foundations of advanced mathematics. Choose this path if your goal is a Ph.D. degree in mathematics or interested in secondary or community college teaching.
