The Minor in Mathematics program enables non-mathematics majors to complete a course of study that highlights fundamental techniques and applications of mathematics.  The mathematics minor involves middle-level and upper-level coursework in mathematics, aimed at a broad view of topics.

Students wishing to earn a minor in mathematics do not need to visit the Mathematics Department to do so. They should see their advisor, and inform them of their intention to earn a minor in mathematics, and to have that information entered into COMPASS.

Students who are majoring in engineering or one of the sciences, may be able to obtain a second (double) major in mathematics. If that is of interest to you, contact the Mathematics Undergraduate Program Office.

Non-math majors can obtain a minor in mathematics by meeting the following requirements:
