MATHEMATICS AND ACTUARIAL
SCIENCE
Mission
The Bachelor of Science program in Mathematics and
Actuarial Science, seeks to aid students in developing
proficiency in logic, critical and analytical thinking and a
comprehensive knowledge of mathematical principles
and concepts, and offers a combination of required
courses and electives that provide a broad background
with sufficient flexibility to satisfy a wide variety of
individual interests and career objectives.
The curriculum in mathematics prepares students for
employment in private industries and government and
for admission to graduate school in mathematics and
actuarial sciences, statistics, computer sciences and
allied fields.
