The following are required courses:
  21:640:135  Calculus I (4) or 21:640:155  Honors Calculus I (4)
  21:640:136  Calculus II (4) or 21:640:156  Honors Calculus II (4)
  21:640:235  Calculus III (4)
  21:640:238  Foundations of Modern Mathematics (3)
  21:640:311  Advanced Calculus I (3)
  21:640:312  Advanced Calculus II (3)
  21:640:314  Elementary Differential Equations (3)
  21:640:350  Linear Algebra (3)
  21:640:491 or 492  Mathematics Seminar (3,3)

In addition, 12 elective credits are required in mathematics courses at the 300 or 400 level.  21:730:432 is also a valid elective for the mathematics major. Six of these credits must consist of proof-based courses such as: 21:640:403,432,435,441,442,451,452,456 or 21:730:432.

The following courses also are required:
  21:198:101  Computers and Programming I (3)
  21:750:213  Calculus Based Physics I (4)
  21:750:214  Calculus Based Physics II (4)

The required courses 21:640:238 and 21:640:491/492 are writing intensive, and together satisfy the writing requirement for mathematics majors.  
Here is a prerequisite flow chart for required courses in the mathematics major. Mathematics majors should take 21:640:238 immediately after completing 21:640:136/156.

The following is a recommended sequence for completing the courses required for a mathematics major. Additional courses are required by the student's college of matriculation for graduation.
