Bachelor of Science in Mathematics - Integrated Credential Option

The requirement for entrance to the major and minor programs is completion of two years of algebra as well as courses in geometry and trigonometry, or a sequence of courses containing their equivalents, such as MATH 3 (College Algebra) and 5 (Trigonometry). It is strongly recommended that such study be completed before entrance to the university.

Incoming Integrated Credential Option students are eligible for the Mathematics Teaching Scholars Honors Program

Advising Notes

1. PHYS 4AL is required for the Integrated Credential Option. PHYS 4A and 4AL will satisfy the General Education (GE) Breadth requirement.
2. Students in the Integrated Credential Option are required to take ANTH 105W as a writing course that also satisfies the Multicultural/International Requirement.
3. Three units of MATH 75 (or MATH 75A) also will satisfy the G.E. Foundation B4 requirement and Math 123 will satisfy G.E. Area IB requirement. CI 152 is double counted as a Credential requirement and G.E. ID requirement for the Integrated Credential option.
4. Thirteen units of courses are double counted (B1/3, B4, IB, and ID), and 3 units of G.E. requirements are waived (A3) for the Integrated Credential option.
5. See Mathematics Road Map at:

Advising

It is strongly recommended, to all math majors, to have an advising session at least once a semester. If you do not have an assigned advisor, please talk to the staff at the Mathematics department office (PB 381).
