Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Mathematics] From Vanderbilt University

After building a mathematical coursework foundation, undergraduate students have several options to pursue research. Students who are generally interested in mathematical research are encouraged to attend summer REU experiences away from Vanderbilt in order to broaden their experience. Every summer several students pursue this option and continue their research when they return the following academic year under the supervision of a Vanderbilt mathematics faculty member. 

Students whose coursework inspires specific pure or applied research interests pursue research with a faculty member either through independent study or financially supported summer work. Common applied areas include economics, physics, and mathematical biology.

Students with interdisciplinary interests will combine mathematical modeling independent study with scientific, medical, or engineering lab work under the supervision of a mathematics faculty member.
