BA Mathematics

Fairleigh Dickinson University - United States

The Bachelor of Arts in mathematics program prepares students to work in industry, government, business or education, as well as for graduate study in mathematics, education, business and other closely related STEM fields, particularly in the interdisciplinary areas of artificial intelligence, computer science, cybersecurity, data science and machine learning. Students may choose elective courses in mathematics and related subjects that focus on methods used to solve problems in quantitative fields of study, more theoretical elective courses that focus on strengthening their knowledge of mathematical fundamentals, or some combination of such electives. They are encouraged to complete a minor in computer science, which they can easily accomplish through the electives. In all cases, students are exposed via a highly flexible curriculum to the kind of rigorous analysis, logic, and critical thinking that will help them to succeed in their chosen careers and/or advanced studies. Students meet with a school-based adviser to discuss their course sequence and electives based on their goals and interests. The program is offered by the Lee Gildart and Oswald Haase School of Computer Sciences and Engineering at the Metropolitan Campus, Teaneck, New Jersey.
