Mathematics, with an Optional Specialization in Statistics and Data Analysis (B.S.)

Bachelor of Science in Mathematics

The Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics develops a level of skill that will enable the student to apply his/her knowledge in industry or teaching and prepares the student for advanced study of mathematics and other fields.

Students may either choose to do a “Bachelor of Science in Mathematics”, or a “Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, with a specialization in Statistics and Data Analysis”. Please see the different requirements in the concentration electives.

More information on Mathematics as a professional activity and on career opportunities is available on the department webpage.

Declaration of the Mathematics Major

Students accepted at AUC may either get admitted into their preferred major at the time of admission to the university (declare their major at the gate) or get admitted to the university as undeclared. Students who get admitted into a major will still have the opportunity to change their major later. Students must declare a major before completing 60 credit hours (before achieving a junior standing). Please check the eligibility criteria for declaring the Mathematics major below.
