数学系认为，本科专业既应该是更高级学习的入门，又应该是对数学许多方面的调查。BS数学教学计划的主要重点是培养学生在中学和中学阶段教授数学的能力，以及为学生提供数学和教学的进阶学习的准备。
The Department of Mathematics believes an undergraduate major should be both an introduction to more advanced study and a survey of the many facets of mathematics. The primary focus of the BS Mathematics Teaching program is to prepare students to teach mathematics at the middle and secondary levels as well as prepare students for advanced study in mathematics and teaching.The primary focus of the BS Mathematics Teaching program is to prepare students to teach mathematics at the middle and secondary levels as well as prepare students for advanced study in mathematics and teaching.
