Overview
About this Degree
There are in-depth faculty-student collaborative experiences usually only found in smaller liberal arts institutions, along with the breadth and diversity of offerings of a large institution. Our faculty is committed to incorporating student projects into their research, and guiding undergraduates through the processes of proposing and carrying out professional level research projects in mathematics. In addition, our conferences, clubs and outreach programs designed specifically for undergraduates make our majors true members of our community.
As a Mathematics major at James Madison University, students will gain an increased understanding and appreciation for math as a universal language. Students can expect to use and build on skills such as thinking critically, formulating and solving problems and communicating solutions. Students will increase their ability to prove theorems, understand complex structure, and apply mathematics and statistics in many real-world settings. The Mathematics program students choose will make it possible for them to acquire strong preparation for graduate work or for professional applications in mathematics and statistics, teaching, natural and social sciences or other technical areas.
