Major Check Sheet
A Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Applied Mathematics requires the following courses: 32 sh
MTH 151 | CALCULUS I | 4 sh |
MTH 239 | LINEAR ALGEBRA | 4 sh |
MTH 251 | CALCULUS II | 4 sh |
MTH 252 | MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS AND ANALYTIC GEOMETRY | 4 sh |
MTH 343 | MATHEMATICAL MODELING | 4 sh |
MTH 359 | DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS | 4 sh |
CSC 130 | COMPUTER SCIENCE I | 4 sh |
CSC | ONE CSC COURSE NUMBERED 200 OR ABOVE | 4 sh |
One course selected from: 4 sh
Note: a student is not allowed to count both MTH 241 and MTH 330 toward the major.
Two courses selected from: 8 sh
At least one course must be 400-level.
Two 300/400 MTH classes (excluding MTH 308 and 309), or a sequence of two courses from an allied field approved by the mathematics department: 8 sh
A related experiential/capstone experience approved by the department: 4 sh
*The electives and the related course from outside of mathematics are expected to form a cohesive plan and must be approved by the mathematics and statistics department.
Total Credit Hours: 56
A student may be exempt from MTH 110 and/or MTH 151 by demonstrating proficiency.
Once a student has received credit, including transfer credit for a course, credit may not be received for any course with material that is equivalent to it or is a prerequisite for it without permission of the mathematics department.
All graduating mathematics majors are required to complete a senior portfolio of their work. This portfolio will include a compilation of their work across their four years of mathematical study at Elon; therefore, students should be mindful of this requirement as they complete work for all their courses and be sure to retain electronic copies of work that they may want to include in their portfolio in their senior year.
