Note 1: Students who have successfully completed MATH 214 prior to January 2006 may use MATH 214 in place of MATH 265.

Note 2: Students who have successfully completed COMP 150 prior to September 2006 may use COMP 150 in place of COMP 152.

Note 3: Students who have successfully completed MATH 125 prior to January 2005 may use MATH 125 in place of MATH 225.

Upper-level requirements: 30 credits

30 upper-level credits of mathematics courses labeled above MATH 302, which must include MATH 340. At least nine of these upper-level credits must be 400-level (excluding Directed Studies or Job Practicum). Students may use PHYS 381 as part of the thirty upper-level credits; however, PHYS 381 cannot be used to satisfy requirements of a math program as well as requirements of a physics program.
