Mission
The mission of the Department of Mathematics is to:
- Provide cultural training in mathematics;
- Prepare teachers of secondary school mathematics;
- Provide the basic training in mathematics needed by preprofessional students and students of science; and
- Lay a broad foundation for students majoring in mathematics.
Program requirements
Mathematics majors may elect the Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree. Senior majors must take the Major Field Achievement Test in mathematics, preferably during the last semester.
As a rule, students should have an ACT Math score of at least 28 (SAT Math score of at least 660) to enroll in MATH 201 . Corresponding minimum Math scores to enroll in MATH 171 and MATH 151 are as follows: MATH 171 , an ACT Math score of at least 25 (SAT Math score of at least 590); MATH 151 , an ACT Math score of at least 22 (SAT Math score of at least 540). Leveling work decreases the number of electives or increases the total hours in the degree.
