Bachelor of Science in Mathematics

Since mathematics is both a cultural and a technical field of study, the curriculum is planned with the following objective:

• to introduce students to mathematics as an important area of human thought;
• to prepare students for careers in a wide array of industries and academia;
• to give preparation to students for graduate study in mathematics and related fields;
• to prepare students planning to teach mathematics at the secondary level;
• to serve the needs of students in fields which rely on mathematics, e.g., experimental sciences, social sciences and education.
