* This course may also be used to satisfy Core requirements.

** MTH 400 Secondary Methods in Mathematics may not be used for this requirement.

PHY 240, 241, 250, 251, are recommended general electives.

Students who plan to do graduate study in mathematics should select MTH 421

Abstract Algebra II and MTH 441 Mathematical Analysis II as electives in mathematics.

Students who wish to teach secondary school mathematics must satisfy admission

requirements for the Liberal Arts Teacher Education Concentration (LATEC) and

complete the General Education Core and Education Theory curriculum in the

Secondary Education Certification Program. Additionally, these prospective mathematics

teachers must take MTH 360, Probability and Statistics; MTH 380, Modern

Geometry; and MTH 400, Secondary Methods in Mathematics, which may be used

as a general elective but not as a mathematics elective.

The Mathematics Minor

The Mathematics minor is a course of study designed as a second field for students

who wish to develop their understanding of mathematics as a tool of the mind.
