Mathematics Major (B.A.) at Ohio University

This major is recommended for students who want to pursue a broad or liberal arts education with a concentration in the mathematical sciences, have plans for future education or employment in an interdisciplinary area; or desire a double major in mathematics and some other field.

The mathematics major offers a strong program in mathematical techniques and ways of thinking that can be used in a wide variety of careers. The major covers core topics that provide a common structure, while leaving flexibility to pursue topics of interest. This flexibility allows the mathematics major to be combined with other majors in the sciences, engineering, and technology to form a coherent undergraduate experience.

Other majors in the mathematical sciences offered by the Mathematics Department are B.S. in mathematics, applied mathematics, actuarial science, and mathematics statistics.

When planning any program in the study of mathematics, it is strongly recommended that you consult an advisor from the department.
