Mathematics

In a world increasingly dependent upon science and technology, the study of mathematics has become evermore important and, in many disciplines, essential. Women and men trained in mathematics are employed in industry, teaching, and research at all levels. Students who study mathematics gain an excellent background for collaboration with professionals in other disciplines, such as economics, business, and criminal justice.

Undergraduate mathematics also serves as an excellent basis for further studies in operations research, statistics, computer science, medicine, and law; in addition to mathematics itself. The Mathematics minor at Curry College provides the foundation for further studies in applied fields and prepares a liberally educated person for related fields in which strong quantitative and problem-solving skills are needed.

Mathematics courses support students majoring in biology, management, nursing, psychology and other areas, and are also available as electives.
