Department of Mathematics
Suggested Minors in Math
The minor in mathematics requires completion of MATH 1131 Calculus with Analytic Geometry 1, MATH 1132 Calculus with Analytic Geometry 2, and at least 9 semester hours at the 3000 level or higher. If a calculus course is applied in Area A or Area D of the core, it may not be counted toward the minor (and a substitute course must be approved).
Except for courses specifically prohibited, any mathematics courses may be applied toward the 9 upper level hours required. However, the table below suggests some course combinations that might be particularly desirable. You are welcome to consult with the Mathematics Department Chair for further guidance.
