Requirements for a Minor in Mathematics

In order to graduate, you must have a major field of study. If, however, you already have a major and would like to take a number of mathematics courses, one of these two mathematics minors may be for you. There are two ways to minor in mathematics. The mathematics minor offers a firm foundation in mathematical thinking while allowing flexibility in choosing topics that interest you most. The applied mathematics minor is a variation which focuses on ideas that are of particular interest to those using mathematics in other areas of study, such as the sciences, economics, business, and engineering.
