A bachelor?s degree in mathematics is highly regarded in industry and provides students with a wide range of job possibilities. It can also prepare students for a postgraduate program in mathematics, allowing them to pursue a career in higher education or to enter at a more senior level of the career ladder in industry.
Most upper-division classes are quite small, allowing great opportunity for one-onone contact with faculty members, who are worldwide experts in their fields. Projects conducted in small groups will lead students to explore areas of modern mathematics that are close to the cutting edge of current research. Research opportunities are available to students informally through various courses as well as more formally through research grants. Many faculty members have mentored undergraduate students through University-wide research grants, including those for disadvantaged students. The department hosts an undergraduate math club and a spacious undergraduate collaboration room, providing space for private study, group work, and tutoring
