1. 124 semester hours:
Complete a minimum of 124 semester hours with a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or better. The last 30 hours of the degree program must be completed at NCCU. 3. Complete 6 hours of calculus-based physics:
Complete 6 hours of calculus-based physics chosen from the following two options:
4. Major requirements:
Complete 40 semester hours within the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science with a minimum grade of “C” in each course.
The 40 hours within the Department consist of: Computer science requirements:
Mathematics core courses:
Mathematics electives:
(four courses chosen from one of the following three options) Additional Information:
Mathematics majors are encouraged to tailor the program to their career objectives by making judicious choice of the electives in requirement (c) above and by taking courses in the department beyond the required 40 hours.
Students planning to do graduate work in mathematics should include as many of the following courses in their program as possible: MATH 3410 , MATH 4310 , MATH 4320 , MATH 4420 , MATH 4430 , MATH 4210 and MATH 4220 . Graduate schools find students who exceed the 40-hour minimum more attractive.
Students planning to work in industry or government should complete as many of the following courses as practical: MATH 2400 /MATH 2500 , MATH 3410 , MATH 4210 /MATH 4220 MATH 4520 /MATH 4530 , COMP 1520 , COMP 1525 , COMP 2810 , COMP 4460 . Such students should consider a minor in computer science. Employers find students who exceed the 40-hour minimum more attractive. Four-Year Curriculum Plan in Mathematics
