Mathematics, B.S. Mission

A Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics provides a strong foundational core for students who wish to pursue graduate studies in pure or applied mathematics; to pursue a career in applied mathematics (e.g., statistics, computer science, operations research, and actuarial mathematics) immediately after obtaining a B.S.; or to teach mathematics in middle school and high school. The courses taken to satisfy the degree requirements are taught viewing mathematics as part of God’s creation, and there is a concentrated effort to integrate faith and learning. Program Learning Outcomes Upon completion of the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, students will be able to: 1. Demonstrate the abilities to think abstractly, problem solve, and prove theorems (ULO 1). 2. Demonstrate the abilities to problem solve, apply mathematical theory to practical situations, and use math-related technology (ULO 1). 3. Develop mathematical content mastery, according to their concentration, for graduate work, high school teaching, or employment in industry (ULO 1).
