Programs of Study

Mathematics

The mathematics program offers Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees that reveal mathematics as one of the humanities – a creation of the human mind. A minor in mathematics is also offered. We emphasize the value of the broad studies to acquire the B.A. degree, and we urge all mathematics majors to develop foreign language skills.

While some courses fulfill a service role for all-university requirements (notably, statistics and other applied areas) and for majors in the sciences and social sciences, a resurgence of majors in mathematics is underway nationally and at Rockford University.

Major and Track/Concentration:

• Data Science, B.A. or B.S.
• Mathematics Major, General Track, B.A. or B.S.
• Mathematics Major, Computational Track, B.A or B.S.
• Mathematics Minor
