Upon completion of the Mathematics major, we expect our graduates:
- To have acquired both proficiency at calculation and a theoretical understanding of single-variable calculus, multivariable calculus, and linear algebra.
- To have developed an ability to read and understand mathematical proofs, as well as to construct and communicate their own mathematical proofs.
- To have demonstrated in a variety of courses the ability to learn and apply new mathematical concepts, definitions, theorems, reasoning skills, and proof skills.
- For honors students, to have delved deeply into an advanced topic and written a clear and detailed exposition in the form of a senior thesis.
