Math-Computer Science Combined Major

The primary objective of the mathematics-computer science combined major is to allow students to explore the lively boundary between computer science and mathematics, where these two disciplines interact and support each other in important ways. This program is designed to give students a core knowledge in both disciplines, to allow them to build on that core with the advanced courses and to provide the foundation necessary to pursue an advanced degree.
