Minor in Mathematics
The Minor in Mathematics is a program consisting of 16 credit hours of undergraduate credit in Mathematics. The purpose of a Minor in Mathematics is to provide non-math major students with the opportunity to enhance their career with a strong background in quantitative skills and strengthen the credentials of students who wish to go to graduate school and job market. In particular, a Minor in Mathematics provides non-math major students with a formal recognition and strength of students’ quantitative knowledge beyond the requirements of their major.
This program is part of the School of Natural Science & Mathematics.
Program Requirements
This minor is open to any IU East student. Students must be in good academic standing. The Minor consists of 16 credit hours in mathematics at the undergraduate level following the Pre-Calculus and Trigonometric Functions courses.
Students will complete the courses in the Calculus sequence (MATH-M 215, MATH-M 216, MATH-M 311). Topics of these courses include differential and integral calculus of one and several variables, and sequences and series. The remaining course is an elective, and topics may vary.
