BS in Applied Mathematics

Applied mathematics explores the connections between mathematics and the physical world and uses mathematics in studying and solving real-world problems. In this interdisciplinary major, students learn the techniques of modeling, analysis, computing, simulation, and data manipulation as applied to their area of interest, such as engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, or economics. Students can pursue a BS with a major in applied mathematics in three different ways, either at the university (Option A with a minor or Option C Statistics Emphasis) or through the MBU-UVA cooperative program in Engineering (Option B).
