Ringkasan program

This program provides a challenging, rigorous and intellectually stimulating education in mathematics for those who are well-prepared or plan to attend graduate school. Students who complete it will be recognized with an honors designation on their degree. This program will place students in a strong position for entry into graduate programs and can also serve as a core of liberal arts courses for those who will pursue other interests, such as law and medicine. The program culminates in a senior thesis project. This is an opportunity to work, one on one, with a faculty advisor. As such, it adds tremendously to the overall undergraduate experience at the university. Students should plan to complete all required lower division courses, including the physics sequence, before the junior year. Students are encouraged to select a thesis/project and advisor themselves, but the honors advisor is available to help with this and other issues. The final choice of topic needs to be made before the senior year and approved by the honors advisor. To receive an honors degree in mathematics, a student must receive at least a B in each course required for the program, and must maintain a GPA of at least 3.5 in these courses, as well as a 3.5 overall grade point average. Students in this program are encouraged to fulfill their general education requirements by taking courses from the University Honors Program. As with all math degrees, honors students must receive a satisfactory score on the appropriate comprehensive exam. For the honors degree students must score in the 9th percentile or higher on the GRE mathematics subject exam.
