Additional Requirements
All required courses must be completed with a grade of C or better. Courses used to fulfill core or major requirements cannot be counted for the minor. Exceptions are (a) Engineering students may count their Engineering mathematics electives and technical elective (if taken in mathematics) and MATH 302 or MATH 307 towards a minor in mathematics; (b) BA Physics, BS Physics, and BS Astrophysics students may count their MATH 307 or MATH 311 major requirement towards a minor in mathematics.
If MATH 243 is a requirement for your major but you did not take MATH 253A , you must complete MATH 244 , and complete 12 credits in mathematics courses numbered above 300 that include 3 credit hours in writing-intensive mathematics courses and 6 credit hours in courses 400 and above (excluding MATH 480 ). If both MATH 243 and MATH 244 are requirements for your major, or if you took MATH 253A for your major requirement, you must complete 15 credits in mathematics courses numbered above 300 that include 3 credit hours in writing-intensive mathematics courses and 6 credit hours in courses 400 and above (excluding MATH 480 ). The requirements include work at the senior level and allow the choice of specific courses which best complement work in the student’s major field.
Students who are interested in minoring in mathematics are urged to consult a departmental advisor early in their academic career. Prior to graduation (at least one semester in advance), a Certification of Academic Minor form should be completed in consultation with a departmental advisor.
