Mathematics is studied both as a tool and for its own sake. Its usefulness in the sciences physical, biological, social and behavioral, and environmental and in decision-making processes is so established as to make it an indispensable part of many curricula, and its role in these areas of application is growing. Mathematics is chosen as a major study by individuals who find it challenging, fascinating, and beautiful, aspects also appreciated by many who seek primarily to acquire mathematics as a tool.
A career in mathematics, except for teaching at the secondary level, generally requires a graduate degree as initial preparation. Careers include teaching, research, and the application of mathematics to diverse problems carried out in institutions of higher learning, business, industry, and government.
The Bachelor of Arts, Master of Arts, Master of Arts for Teachers of Mathematics, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees are offered.
High School Preparation: For study of mathematics at the University, it is recommended that high school preparation include the equivalent of two years of algebra, plane geometry, trigonometry, and analytic geometry.
