• Mathematics is a key component of the educational background of all students. • The ability to think critically, analyze data, and be quantitatively literate are necessary skills in any discipline. • The study of statistics and calculus is part of Westminster’s Foundational Tier requirements and helps students apply mathematics in their majors. • Courses encourage the use of technology and team work, emphasizing TI graphing calculators and software. Major Highlights A mathematics major will study analytic geometry, probability and statistics, analysis, differential equations and much more. Students will also have the opportunity to do independent research over the summer or during the year and present their findings at our Undergraduate Scholars Forum, a day when classes are suspended for the entire Westminster community to view research projects, presentations, and readings. Cool Classes All senior math majors take a course to prepare for a national level mathematics competition suc
