The course requirements for a major are fulfilled by selecting one
of the following three paths. (Note: Transfer students must complete at least
nine upper division hours in mathematics from the Washburn Mathematics
Department.)
Mathematics
Calculus (MA 151,
152, 153),
Discrete Mathematics (MA207),
Linear Algebra (MA 261),
Applied Statistics (MA 343),
Modern Algebra (MA 354),
Introduction
to Real Analysis I (MA 371),
Introduction to Real Analysis II (MA 372),
Logic for Programming (PH 110) or Logic (PH 220),
FORTRAN (CM 170) or
The C Programming Language (CM 244),
and any two of the following four
courses:
Mathematical Models (MA 330),
Mathematical Statistics (MA
344),
Mathematical Statistics II (MA 345),
Numerical Analysis (MA 376).
In addition, 10-15 hours of correlated courses approved by the department
are required. The correlated course requirement will be one of the following:
Physics 261 and 262;
Physics 281 and 282;
EC 201, EC 202, BU 342,
and BU 347; EC 201, EC 202, AC 224, AC 225, and BU 381; or a specially designed
sequence to be approved by the Department Chair.
