About
As our use of digital data and technology grows, so does the need for skilled professionals with a strong foundation in mathematics. National University’s Bachelor of Science in Mathematics degree is designed to help students meet this increasing demand by preparing them for careers as mathematical scientists, technicians, and teachers.
This program emphasizes a reflective and conceptual understanding of mathematics and its applied techniques. Students are advised that all mathematics courses encourage critical thinking by their very nature. The environment stresses scholarship, diversity, and growth through a rigorous and focused curriculum that incorporates reasoning, problem-solving, mathematics as communication, and mathematical connections. Coursework provides sound preparation and training for a diverse population of nontraditional learners whose goal is to work or teach professionally in mathematics.
