5. Required Minor or Second Major

Students pursuing this emphasis are required to
complete the requirements of either a minor
(other than Computer Science) or second major (other
than Computer Science, Professional Emphasis). This
minor or major should represent an area of interest to
the student and be chosen in consultation with the
student's advisor.

Students who are not ready for Calculus will normally begin their mathematics course work in MATH 1470 Precalculus. Some students may need to successfully complete several mathematics courses before taking MATH 2471 Calculus I.
