Mathematics
Description of the Major
The major in mathematics will enable you to develop proficiency in calculus, differential equations, advanced calculus, linear algebra and abstract algebra, and expose you to several other mathematical areas beyond these core fields. You will learn to read and to construct mathematical proofs, to reason in abstract mathematical systems and to use mathematical models. You will also acquire the ability to read new mathematics and to formulate mathematical models and arguments.

Additional information is available from your major's website.
