为了帮助指导学生修读专业，数学系提供了五个专业。这些浓度之一需要完成。每个集中课程都包含一套九门必修的数学课程，全部在3000级（约28个学分）上。要毕业，学生必须在其中的7门课程中获得最低C的成绩，在另两门课程中获得C-的最低成绩。另一个大学专业最多可算两门课程，数学专业也可算在内。如果另一门专业是跨学科的，则可以开设三门课程。
Students in the Department of Mathematics may earn a B.A. with several different concentrations at the undergraduate level or a Ph.D. at the graduate level. The Department also collaborates with the Curry School of Education in offering a five-year B.A.-M.A. program in mathematics teacher education. The discipline of mathematics is present in almost every facet of our lives and in many careers. It is basic to the fields of medical imaging, sports and business data analytics, digital communication, internet search, weather prediction, finance, and actuarial work, just to name a few. Studying mathematics helps develop logical thinking, which is an essential skill for many jobs including those not directly related to mathematics. In addition, the mathematics department hopes to give the mathematics major a feel for the elegance of the subject and the excitement in learning and proving beautiful theorems. The mathematics major at UVA gives students a solid foundation in the core topics of modern mathematics, while at the same time offering a great deal of flexibility to tailor a program to their interests. To this end, the mathematics department offers five concentrations: The general concentration, the graduate preparatory concentration, the probability/statistics concentration, the financial mathematics concentration, and the five-year teacher education program. Completion of one of these concentrations is required. All concentrations share a core set of essential courses and a goal of developing students ability to reason precisely and abstractly.
