Math Options for Business Majors

 

1) Math options available to Business students: 

The Business degree (B.S. in Business Administration) requires the 130s series in Mathematics (130, 131, 132). Students who wish to enrich their program in Mathematics are invited and encouraged to take the 150s series or higher. About 10-20% of Business students (mostly Honors students) include a stronger Math component in their programs. Click here for a description of the 130s or 150s courses. If you are Placement Level L, click here for additional Calculus options.
