The Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics provides a solid mathematical foundation and also allows for the most flexibility. This program prepares students for a variety of jobs in business and industry, as well as for graduate study in fields related to mathematics. For more information please see the bulletin: B.A. in Mathematics
The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics provides an in-depth theoretical background focusing on the traditional core areas of mathematics. This program provides a foundation for graduate study or careers in fields using sophisticated quantitative and mathematical analysis. In particular, this program is suitable preparation for graduate study in mathematics. For more information see the bulletin: Mathematics B.S.
The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Computer Science is intended for students who are interested in computer science and mathematical computing. It provides a solid knowledge of theoretical computer science and its mathematical foundations and compares favorably with other theoretically-oriented computer science programs. The program is particularly recommended to those students who are interested in pursuing a graduate degree in computer science or computational mathematics. For more information, see the bulletin: Math & Comp Sci BS
The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Physics, a program administered jointly with the Department of Physics, is an interdisciplinary program providing a foundation in physical sciences with a strong emphasis on the mathematical techniques needed for analysis and modeling. It prepares the student for science or analysis careers which use these mathematical tools along with problem-solving skills, as well as for graduate studies in either mathematics or physics. For more information, see the bulletin: Math & Physics BS
The College of Liberal Arts' Department of Economics and the Math Department jointly offer the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematical Economics as a platform for systematic concentration in the mathematical approach to economics.
Economics has progressed in the last several decades by making extensive use of mathematical techniques. As a result, students who wish to pursue graduate study in economics, finance, accounting and other disciplines that make an extensive use of economics need a thorough grounding in both economics and mathematics. The Mathematical Economics curriculum provides this grounding with a broad selection of courses that cover all important areas of economics and the mathematical tools required for a critical, deep mastery of these areas. For more information, see the bulletin: Mathematical Economics BA
The Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with Teaching in Temple’s College of Science and Technology is designed for Mathematics majors who want to pursue a career in STEM education. Concurrent with the same scientific and related careers as the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, the Mathematics with Teaching program provides students with more study directed toward teaching mathematics to grades 7 through 12. This 124-credit-hour, interdisciplinary degree is offered through Temple’s innovative TUteach program.
The +1 Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and Master of Science in Mathematics program is an accelerated program. To participate in this +1 program, a mathematics major should be enrolled in the BA program. Application to continue in the MS program must be made to the graduate chair of the department no later than the first semester of the senior year. For more information, see the bulletin: Math BA/MS
The +1 Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Master of Science in Mathematics program is an accelerated program within the College of Science and Technology. To participate in this +1 program, a mathematics major should be enrolled in the BS degree program. For more information, see the bulletin: Math BS/MS
The Minor in Mathematics is intended for students interested in the logical thinking and problem solving skills that are gained in studying mathematics. This minor is ideal for students seeking to apply mathematical methods in other disciplines, particularly in the sciences, engineering, social sciences, computing, or business.
