Society is increasingly dependent upon solving complex problems of a numerical, quantitative, and statistical nature. These all require logical thought. The Mathematics major is a solid introduction to all aspects of mathematics. It helps students prepare for the exciting challenges of today and tomorrow. Additionally, for those students who are undecided about a career, a Mathematics major proves an excellent background in critical thinking and problem solving.

The Mathematics Secondary Education Major gives high-quality academic preparation to students who wish to become Colorado licensed grades 7-12 math teachers. This option is extremely demanding and requires careful planning and advising. Students choosing this option should consult a Math Department mentor as early as possible in their careers, and should read the Teacher Education Licensure Program section of this catalog for the steps and requirements for applying to and requirements for completing the program.
