Mathematics

Programs

The UE Mathematics programs are distinctive with a curriculum that allows for early exposure to upper level courses and the opportunity to explore multiple career paths.

Bachelor of Science in Pre-doctoral Mathematics

Pre-doctoral mathematics is a highly selective program for students who intend to pursue graduate study in mathematics leading to a doctoral degree. It involves undergraduate research and a curriculum that includes many courses typically offered only at the graduate level. Only two students are accepted per year.

Bachelor of Science with a major in Mathematics

This program is well-suited for students who seek certification to teach mathematics at the senior high, junior high and middle school levels and also for students who desire a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in mathematics and a minor (or second major) in an area unrelated to mathematics. The course work in mathematics is sufficiently rigorous to provide preparation for graduate work in mathematics.

Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics

This degree program offers a firm foundation in applied mathematics by combining a rigorous program of study in mathematics with a concentration in one or more disciplines in which mathematical tools are used to solve real-world problems. Areas of application include actuarial science, business administration, computer science, economics, and the physical or biological sciences.

Area of Application — Actuarial Science
Actuarial science prepares students to work with insurance companies in the areas of risk management, pension funds, health coverage, and death benefits. UE is one of a select group of colleges with the Society of Actuaries — Undergraduate Advanced designation. Students in this area are highly encouraged to complete a professional internship. Coursework and preparation is designed to support 3-4 actuarial exams
