Mathematics and Computer Science (Dual Major), B.S.

General Education Requirements - 43 Credit Hours

Mathematics/Computer Science majors must meet the Baccalaureate Degree Requirements  as set out in the General Education Program .

• Science Requirement: PHY 2113 - Physics with Calculus I  will meet the General Education Science Requirement.
• Math Requirement: MAT 2804 - Calculus I  will meet the General Education Mathematics Requirement.

Global Studies and Social Science Requirements

One course must be selected from each of the following lists of Global Studies courses and Social Science courses.

School of Arts and Sciences Additional Natural Science Requirements - 5 Credit Hours

Students in the School of Arts and Sciences must take five additional hours of natural science: 1 lab to accompany the course taken for general education [BIO 1043 , BIO 1023 , ESC 1043 , OCY 1043 , FOR 1003  , PHY 1033 , PHY 1063 , or PHY 2113  and one additional natural science course and accompanying lab. The two natural sciences must be in different areas (one BIO and one other). In sum, students are required to take a minimum of 8 hours of natural science courses: two natural science courses (one biological science and one other) along with the labs associated with each. We recommend Psychology majors take BIO 1043   and BIO 1041  (lab) to fulfill one science requirement.
