Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Mathematics] From Northern Kentucky University

While all mathematics majors complete a common core of courses that ensures the student has a broad knowledge of mathematics, students can follow their interests by choosing from one of three required tracks:

• Pure mathematics designed for those who plan to pursue graduate studies.
• Applied mathematics for those who want to pair mathematics with interests in business, the natural sciences, or the social sciences.
• General mathematics for anyone who wants a comprehensive introduction to mathematics, including those who plan to teach in secondary

Working on research projects is a great way to get valuable experience. Having such experiences demonstrates to employers and graduate schools a graduate?s ability to complete a major assignment, to work independently and/or through collaboration, to analyze and synthesize information, and to write and speak persuasively.

A key objective of the research is to show students that exposure to mathematics and statistics can provide them with the skills to solve problems in a wide range of fields. Many students are asked to present their findings at professional meetings and some co-author papers.
