A minor is offered in Mathematic Modeling.

The mission of the Mathematics program is to develop clear thinking and an appreciation of the indispensable role of the discipline in understanding our data-driven modern world. The following goals permeate program coursework. Specifically, through the courses in our program, students will develop: 
• the recognition that mathematics is a process, not a black box that merely presents the “correct” answer, 
• skills for exploring and understanding various mathematical models, from a variety of academic fields, 
• logical thinking skills, 
• facility with the appropriate uses of technology and in reading mathematics, and, perhaps most importantly, 
• the ability to share their work with the appropriate audience, both orally and in print.
