Brooklyn Campus

To develop a more mature appreciation of the significance of mathematics and its impact on today’s world, each student is required to take one semester of mathematics chosen from a set of courses designed to appeal to a variety of interests. In addition to courses in mathematics, the department offers a wide variety of courses in computer science and information systems.

Students may take a major or minor in mathematics, a major or a minor in computer information technology or a minor in computer science. Child Study majors may take a concentration in mathematics.

Long Island Campus

To develop a more mature appreciation of the significance of mathematics and its impact on today’s world, each student is required to take one semester of mathematics chosen from a set of courses designed to appeal to a variety of interests. Students may, with departmental approval, offer other mathematics courses to fulfill the core.

In addition to courses in mathematics, the department offers a wide selection of courses in computer science and information systems. Students may major in Mathematics, Mathematics/Computer Science or Computer Information Technology. The department offers a program for secondary education students that allows them to earn both their bachelor’s and master’s degree within five years. Child Study majors may select either Mathematics or Mathematics/Computer Science as their area of concentration. Many of the courses in both Mathematics and Computer Science may be offered towards the completion of several certificate programs.
