Mathematics is designed to convey both appreciation for and ability to use techniques and strategies of mathematical reasoning. In required courses, the mathematical structures and applications that have led to more efficient organization and synthesis of mathematical knowledge are covered.
Everything from coal efficiency to biometrics identification systems to predicting lung disease are primarily being researched by WVU mathematicians and statisticians, and you could be a part of that research as well!
How will I focus my studies?
The School of Mathematical and Data Sciences provides a curriculum with programs for:
- An undergraduate major and minor in mathematics.
- The pre-service elementary and secondary teacher.
- Students interested in the applications of mathematics to the fields of computer science, statistics, engineering, physical, natural and social science and business and economics.
- The non-science major, to explain the ideals and objectives of mathematics.
