1 Overview of Mathematics Programs

The Department of Mathematics offers two majors:

Mathematics (MA) Major: This major is designed forstudents whose primary interest is mathematics or statistics, and isgood preparation either for careers in those fields or for graduatestudy. Students pursuing this major choose one of two options,which differ primarily in the upper-division courses they emphasize:

• Math Option: prepares students for careers in mathematics orfor graduate school in mathematics, applied mathematics, orrelated fields

• Statistics Option: prepares students for careers asstatisticians or actuaries or for graduate school in statistics.

Applied Mathematics and Statistics (AM&S) Major: Thismajor is designed for students who wish to develop theirmathematical skills and apply them to solve challenging problemsin science, engineering, or business. This major has less emphasison abstract mathematics and proof than does the MA major. Inaddition to a broad base of applied mathematics courses, studentschoose applications electives in their areas of interest.

Other undergraduate programs administered by the department:

• Major in Digital Arts and Sciences (joint with departments ofCommunication and Media and Computer Science)

• Minor in Mathematics

• Minor in Statistics

• Minor in Computational Science

The department also administers graduate programs leading to theM.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Mathematics. For information ongraduate programs, contact the department office or visit thedepartment website.

2 Academic Opportunities

As you plan your program of study, keep in mind the followingconsiderations and special programs.

Free Electives. Both the MA and AM&S majors include a largenumber of free electives. You are strongly encouraged to use theseelectives in a meaningful way. While you can use some of your freeelectives to take additional courses in your major, many studentsuse some of their free electives to earn either a minor or a secondmajor. This second discipline can be closely related to your majoror it can be a discipline in which you have a strong personal orprofessional interest.

Double Majors. Many students in the department graduatehaving satisfied the requirements for two different majors.Mathematics and Computer Science is a common combination;other popular second majors include Physics, Biology, andBusiness. Doubling with an engineering major usually requiresoverloading. See your advisor and the Chair of the seconddepartment. Sample programs for several double majors are at theend of this booklet. These are only samples, so you must verifyyour program with both major departments in advance.

Dual Degrees. A dual degree (the simultaneous awarding of twoB.S. degrees) is like a double major, but requires significantly morecredit hours and thus is much less common. See the Catalog andthe Clarkson Regulations for details.

Minors. In recent years, mathematics students have satisfied therequirements for minors spanning over a dozen different disciplines,from Software Engineering to History to Political Science. See theCatalog for an up-to-date list of available minors. Then see youradvisor and the department offering the minor.

Co-ops and Internships. You may spend a semester or moreworking in a professional capacity for a business. Besides providingvaluable experience, participating in this program may pave theway to a job after graduation. Usually the junior year is best for aco-op, but you start planning in the fall of your sophomore year.Contact the Career Center. It’s never too early.

Undergraduate Research. Many students get involved inresearch with a faculty member while at Clarkson. For some thisgives a change of pace from classroom learning and a taste of whatgraduate research might be like. For others this becomes asignificant part of their education and may culminate in an honorsthesis or journal publication. If you’re interested, start asking yourprofessors early (e.g., by your sophomore year) to see what they’redoing and what your options are. Undergraduate research projectsgenerally earn academic credit (either as Directed Study,Undergraduate Research, or Honors Thesis) and may involve workduring the semester or the summer.

Off-campus Research. Students with sufficient mathematicalpreparation may pursue research projects off-campus. The NationalScience Foundation sponsors many Research Experience forUndergraduates (REU) programs each summer, and many nationallaboratories have internships or similar opportunities. Suchprograms are competitive; start your search and apply early.

Study Abroad Exchange. Clarkson has agreements withuniversities in England, Australia, France, and many othercountries for transfer of credits taken there. This is usually done inthe junior year. Contact the Career Center for more information

Cross-Registration. The Associated Colleges of theSt. Lawrence Valley (Clarkson, SUNY Potsdam, St. Lawrence, andSUNY Canton) have a cross-registration program for transferringcredit. For example, Potsdam State offers courses in foreignlanguages, fine arts, and education that are not available atClarkson. You may cross-register for up to two courses per year.Contact your advisor or SAS for details.

Master’s Degrees. You can complete an MBA degree atClarkson in one additional year if you choose appropriate electivesas an undergraduate. Contact the School of Business Office.

Careers. Many careers are open to students with degrees inmathematics—more than you might imagine. For extensiveinformation on careers, go to the websites of the Society forIndustrial and Applied Mathematics, the American MathematicalSociety, and the Mathematical Association of America.
