Mathematics is the body of knowledge centered on such concepts as quantity, structure, space, and change, and also the academic discipline that studies them. Students are not only expected to know the material, but through presentation opportunities, they demonstrate their understanding of the ideas. Either through small group projects in class or in-service projects for an outside entity, students have opportunities to lead and to serve. A math major has the opportunity to work with a local community agency using coursework and computer technology to aid them in their efforts. Recent graduates have focused on business or engineering school, but students can apply their analytical and problem-solving skills in any area of interest.
Major Learning Outcomes (MLOs)
By the completion of this program, students will be able to:
- Explain the mathematical concepts and principles in various publications (e.g. textbooks, articles, research papers, etc.).
- Develop appropriate mathematical models that can be used to determine a solution for a physical situation of phenomenon.
- Apply mathematics in an interdisciplinary context (e.g. business, science, technology, etc.) to identify patterns, support claims, generate solutions, forecast results, and/or summarize data.
- Solve a variety of expressions and problems that demonstrate mastery of both fundamental and advanced mathematical concepts and principles.
