Sample Schedule

Planning your four year schedule as a mathematics major.

Each student's course work will vary accourding to credits taken in high school, ability level, individual preference, and career goals. The following represents a typical schedule. Well-prepared students can begin at a more advanced level. The mathematics major requires two upper-division year-long sequences and an additional upper-division course.

Students thinking of majoring or minoring in mathematics should contact the department as soon as possible, even if they are not ready to formally declare a major.

Mathematics (B.A.) Typical course of study:

In thinking about a schedule of classes it is useful to look at how often classes are typically taught and when they will be available.

The upper division math sequences offered every year:

  • MATH 355-455/457 - Differential Equations
  • MATH 401-402 - Probability and Statistics
  • MATH 411-412 - Algebra
  • MATH 421-422 - Analysis
  • MATH 451-452 - Complex Variables

Other upper division math courses that are not part of the sequences but are routinely offered at least every other year:

  • MATH 311 - Linear Algebra For Engineers
  • MATH 370 - Advanced Math For Engineers
  • MATH 403 - Probability and Statistics For Engineers
  • MATH 405 - History of Math
  • MATH 441 - Foundations of Geometry
  • MATH 447 - Non-Euclidean Geometry
  • MATH 465 - Cryptography

The graduate math sequences are offered every year:

  • MATH 511-512 - Algebra
  • MATH 521-522 - Analysis
  • MATH 531-532 - Topology
  • MATH 631-632 - Differential Geometry
