Undergraduate Students
Students interested in majoring in mathematics or applied mathematics should visit the Department of Mathematical Sciences for assignment of a faculty advisor as early as possible in their undergraduate studies. Students may request a particular faculty member for an advisor. Advisors can also be changed at the request of the student.
The advisors help the students choose the appropriate programs according to their goals, needs and interests; help plan short-range and long range schedules for coursework, including proper sequencing of courses; provide information on the scheduling of courses; provide information on careers; keep a record of each student's progress in completing a particular program; and make referrals to other campus offices for help when necessary.
The Department of Mathematical Sciences feels strongly that regular contact with a faculty advisor is important. The departmental advising system plays a valuable role in helping the student plan a course of study and in enhancing the quality of the student's educational experience. Mathematics majors are expected to visit advisors at least once each semester, prior to registering for courses for the next semester.
Advance schedules of courses, rotation of course information, announcements, documents, employment information, and general information can be found throughout this website. So please take your time and look around.
