Additional Information
The collection of elective courses an applicant plans to use to satisfy the concentration requirements may be amended subject to the approval of the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee. A seminar or independent study involving substantive application of mathematical techniques may satisfy an elective requirement upon the consent of the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee.
No more than two courses from those courses which constitute a student’s major may be applied toward the concentration in Applied Mathematics. With the approval of the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee, a student may substitute an additional elective course for a required course in the student’s major.
At least one elective course must be taken during or after the spring semester of the junior year. A grade of “C’’ or higher is required in all courses applied toward the concentration.
Application Procedure
The Applied Mathematics Concentration is administered by the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee. The faculty liaison is Dr. Donna K. Molinek. A student must submit a written application to the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee by the last day of class of the spring semester of the junior year. Earlier application increases the opportunity for coherence and flexibility in planning the applicant’s course of study. Appropriate progress toward satisfying the required portion of the concentration should be made by the end of the sophomore year. Certification of completion of all the requirements for the concentration is made by the Registrar upon the recommendation of the Applied Mathematics Advisory Committee.
