Purpose: To provide the student with a basic background in mathematics and to allow a student to place some emphasis on an area of mathematics that is closely related to engineering or the biological, physical, or social sciences. Students planning to attend graduate school in mathematics (or one of the many quantitative disciplines) are advised to pursue this degree.
