concentration is especially intended for students thinking of continuing the study of
mathematics, statistics, economics, or finance at the graduate level.
Requirements:
COMMON
CORE
plus
- three courses chosen from
MAT 310-311 Abstract Algebra
I and II and MAT 335-336 Real Analysis I and II;
- three
additional mathematics courses chosen from MAT 303 Theory of
Numbers (formerly known as MAT 230); MAT 302 Combinatorics (formerly known as MAT 240);
MAT 372 Logic and Set Theory; 311-312
Abstract Algebra II and III; MAT 336 Real Analysis II; MAT 337 Complex Analysis; MAT 370
