Introduction: 

The role of mathematics in our highly scientific-technological society is basic and essential. Mathematical thought and modeling are valued tools in our sophisticated industrial community. The application of mathematics to industry and business to meet society’s need is increasing. This growth and demand continues to create a need for graduates with training in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science.

The Applied Mathematics & Computer Science program prepares graduates for careers in a variety of fields by providing a foundation in mathematics, computer science, and statistics, complemented with additional courses specified by the selected concentration. Students may choose a concentration in Actuarial and Data Science, Business Management, Cyber Security, Mathematics Education, Software Development, or students may tailor their coursework to provide knowledge that will prepare them for a career path of their choice through the Interdisciplinary concentration.

Students will enhance their studies and gain significant hands on experience through a cooperative education experience. On campus, there are also opportunities in undergraduate research, tutoring, and other technical openings to enrich the educational experience.
