Typical Course Work Schedule in Mathematics
Each
student's course work will vary accourding to credits taken in
high school, ability level, individual preference, and career goals.
The following represents a typical schedule. Well-prepared students
can begin at a more advanced level. The mathematics major requires
two upper-division year-long sequences and an additional
upper-division course.
Students
thinking of majoring or minoring in mathematics should contact the
department as soon as possible,
even if they are not ready to formally declare a major.

In thinking
about a schedule of classes it is useful to look at how often classes
are typically taught and when they will be available.
The upper
division math sequences offered every year:
- MATH 355-455/457 - Differential Equations
- MATH 401-402 - Probability and Statistics
- MATH 411-412 - Algebra
- MATH 421-422 - Analysis
- MATH 451-452 - Complex Variables
Other upper division math courses that are not part of the
sequences but are routinely offered at least every other year:
- MATH 311 - Linear Algebra For Engineers
- MATH 370 - Advanced Math For Engineers
- MATH 403 - Probability and Statistics For Engineers
- MATH 405 - History of Math
- MATH 441 - Foundations of Geometry
- MATH 447 - Non-Euclidean Geometry
- MATH 465 - Cryptography
The graduate math sequences are offered every year:
- MATH 511-512 - Algebra
- MATH 521-522 - Analysis
- MATH 531-532 - Topology
- MATH 631-632 - Differential Geometry
