Bachelor of Arts
Bachelor of Science
The Mathematics degree programs offer students the opportunity to study logic, symmetry and order through curricula taught by experienced and enthusiastic faculty. Those who major in math at Winthrop learn to formalize patterns, present logical conclusions succinctly, and apply their quantitative knowledge in a variety of settings. The Department of Mathematics offers Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees, each with teacher certification options. This flexibility allows students to tailor their educational experience to a variety of post-graduation options, including secondary education, graduate studies, and nonacademic careers. Students have the opportunity to further explore advanced mathematical theory through undergraduate research and internships. Classes for majors are usually small, and majors can expect to interact personally with faculty members and peers.
