Mathematics Minor
Course Requirements
The minor is intended for students who are interested in mathematics and want a strong mathematical foundation for studying in areas that rely heavily on analytical skills. Students are required to complete at least 10 courses as follows:
Lower-Division Courses
Choose one of the following courses:
MATH 19A | Calculus for Science, Engineering, and Mathematics | 5 |
MATH 20A | Honors Calculus | 5 |
Plus one of the following courses:
MATH 19B | Calculus for Science, Engineering, and Mathematics | 5 |
MATH 20B | Honors Calculus | 5 |
Plus one of the following courses:
MATH 21 | Linear Algebra | 5 |
AM 10 | Mathematical Methods for Engineers I | 5 |
Plus all of the following courses:
Upper-Division Courses
Take the following course:
MATH 100 | Introduction to Proof and Problem Solving | 5 |
Plus four upper-division electives:
The remaining four courses are chosen from MATH, AM, or STAT courses numbered 101-190. Courses must be 5 credits or more, and only one of the four courses can be from AM or STAT. Lecture and lab combinations count as a single course. For courses with a required concurrently enrolled lab, only successful completion of the lecture is required for the major. Successful completion of the lab may count toward total degree credits.
Courses from other departments must be reviewed and approved by the undergraduate vice chair. Under exceptional circumstances, MATH 100 may be substituted by another upper-division mathematics course. The undergraduate vice chair will review requests on an individual basis.
No senior seminar or thesis is required.
