Minor in Mathematics (6 courses/21-23 credits)

The minor in Mathematics allows the students to deepen their Mathematical background while pursuing their major. This minor can be beneficial to students concentrating in business or science who wish a broader knowledge of the power of Mathematics within and outside their field. Any student who wishes to explore the beauty of mathematics but does not want to major in it can also pursue the minor. Only six transfer credits will be accepted toward the minor.

Required Courses (4 courses/15 credits)

MATH 211	Calculus I	4
