Requirements


Description
The computational mathematical sciences curriculum provides students with a background in computer science and the natural or physical sciences in addition to a core of course work in mathematics.

Requirements

  • Students must complete 18 - 20 credit hours, which must include 12 upper division hours for this concentration.
  • All courses must be completed with a grade of “C” (2.00) or higher.
  • A minimum 6 upper division hours must be taken in courses offered by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
  • It is recommended that students take MAT 243 Discrete Mathematical Structures.
  • To enhance the understanding of the subject matter, the selected courses are sequential in nature and require certain prerequisites. Consequently, students should carefully note the semester in which any of these courses are offered.
  • NOTE: This concentration has the following prerequisites: CSE 110, CSE 205, and MAT 275. Additionally, MAT 371 and computer programming language recommended.
