Undergraduate students who have an interest in the Department of Mathematics program to obtain both a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and a Master of Science in Mathematics concurrently must file a Statement of Intent with the Department of Mathematics, ideally before the completion of 75 hours of undergraduate credits. The Department will have a dedicated advisor (BA/MS advisor) specializing in the BA/MS curriculum to discuss the program with the student. The Statement of Intent requires the signature of the dedicated advisor. Acceptance into the program must be approved by the Department Head of Mathematics with his or her signature on the Statement of Intent. The student will be notified of the department's decision regarding formal acceptance into the program. This degree offers a Joint Undergraduate Master's Program (JUMP) which provides academically outstanding students the opportunity to complete both an undergraduate and graduate degree in approximately five years.
