Program Description
The math that drives the science.
This program prepares students to create and apply advanced mathematical models to address complex scientific problems and solve engineering challenges in technology and industry.
This option is a good match for the electrical engineering major. In fact, a double-major in math and electrical engineering requires just a handful of extra classes beyond an electrical engineering degree alone.
The program also adds a lot of power to an engineering or physics resume, and it is especially great preparation for students planning to pursue graduate study in science or engineering.
As a student in this program, students will have special opportunities to engage in math-related research and to participate in the American Mathematical Association Putnam Examination, the most prestigious mathematics competition in the nation.
