Interdisciplinary Major in Mathematical Sciences |
Interdisciplinary majors may be arranged between Mathematical Sciences and another discipline. The Mathematical Sciences component of the interdisciplinary major is described below. Students planning an interdisciplinary major must contact each department to determine the department's requirements for the interdisciplinary major. Mathematical Sciences Courses required: a) MA 251, MA 252, and MA 351: Calculus I-III b) Either ST210: Introduction to Statistics or ST 265: Biostatistics c) MA 301: Linear Algebra d) Depending on the track selected, a one-credit computer course: either MA 302: Matlab or ST 365: SAS Laboratory e) Depending on the track selected, either MA 395: Discrete Methods or MA 304: Ordinary Differential Equations f) Depending on track selected, four 400 level Mathematics or Statistics courses (see below) Other Requirements: CS 201: Computer Science I NOTE: CS202: Computer Science II is strongly encouraged as an elective. Possible Tracks: Statistics Track Required Courses: MA395: Discrete Methods ST365: SAS Laboratory ST461: Elements of Statistical Theory: Distributions ST465: Experimental Research Methods Additional 400-level courses from: ST462: Elements of Statistical Theory: Inference ST466: Experimental Design ST491: Statistical Special Topics MA421: Analysis I MA445: Advanced Linear Algebra MA485: Stochastic Processes Differential Equations/Modeling Track Required Courses: MA302: Matlab MA304: Ordinary Differential Equations MA421: Analysis I
