Mathematics, B.S. Computational Mathematical Sciences Concentration

Program Transfer Guide
Salisbury University

About the Program

Advisement for the major is available from the Mathematical Sciences Department
All majors complete a mathematics core then complete their major in one of six concentrations: traditional, applied, actuarial science, computational mathematical sciences, statistics or teacher certification.
By proper choice of electives, it is possible to complete both the traditional and the applied concentrations without additional credit hours (see the department for advisement).
  • All required mathematics and computer science courses, including prerequisite courses, must be completed with grades of C or better.
  • Some concentrations may accept the nontraditional courses MATH 380/COSC 380, COSC 390, COSC 495, but in no case may more than one or the repetition of one count toward the requirements for the major in mathematics.
  • Transfer students are required to complete at least 12 credits of approved upper-division MATH/COSC courses at SU.
  • Math courses taken before declaring the mathematics major should be evaluated by an advisor before proceeding with course selection.
University Undergraduate Major Policies
