The College of Arts and Sciences offers
an excellent selection of degree programs in Mathematics through the Division
of Computing, Mathematics and Technology.
Our Mathematics programs provide students with the skills they need to
develop powers of critical reasoning and logic within the context of
mathematics. GSU
students are prepared for rewarding careers in a variety of fields and advanced
graduate studies.
Our minor in Mathematics can be taken to
enhance your preparation for a major discipline that requires a substantial
amount of work in mathematics and will help to develop additional quantitative
and qualitative reasoning skills. The
minor requires a total of 23-credit hours.
All students intending to get a minor in mathematics must meet with an
advisor in the Division to develop a study plan.
GSU's B.A.
in Mathematics degree is a balance between theoretical and applied study. Students receive a substantial, broad
background in mathematics and develop skills in logical thinking, problem
analysis, problem-solving, and computer usage. Fields that require mathematic skills include
medicine, business, education, government, computer science and engineering. There
is also the option to earn an Illinois Teaching license for grades 6 through 12.
Students who enroll in the B.A. in Mathematics with an Actuarial Science
concentration will take courses in economics, statistics and probability and be
prepared to take the first actuarial exam.
Our
M.S. in Mathematics program emphasizes problem solving and mathematical
inquiry. Students will be presented with course work in a broad range of
mathematics including abstract algebra, probability and statistics,
combinatorics, advanced calculus, the history of mathematics, financial
mathematics and mathematical modeling. Students
who enroll in the M.S. in Mathematics with an Actuarial Science sequence will
take coursework in advanced probability and financial mathematics and be
prepared to take the first two actuarial exams.
The other offering from the Division is
our Mathematics Education Certificate program.
