Applied Mathematics major

In addition to the preliminary and extra-disciplinary requirements described above, the student must earn credit for the following courses, with a grade average of at least 2.0.

• Differential Equations sequence: MAT 414 and MAT 517.
• Numerical Methods course: MAT 581.
• First course in each of the sequences in Table 1.
• Second course in one of the sequences in Table 1.

• 9 credits of elective mathematics courses numbered 490 or higher. With prior approval of the student's major advisor, mathematically rich 500+ level courses in other departments may be substituted for the mathematics electives.

Distinction in Applied Mathematics is awarded by the Mathematics Department upon completion of a B.S. in Applied Mathematics with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.4, a minimum GPA of 3.6 in mathematics (MAT) courses at the 300+ level, and either an A or A- in the Senior Seminar or a high-quality Honors Thesis.
