Bachelor of Arts in Applied Mathematics (Honors)

The concentration in Applied Mathematics allows students to investigate the mathematics of problems arising in the physical, life and social sciences as well as in engineering. The basic mathematical skills of Applied Mathematics come from a variety of sources, which depend on the problems of interest: the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations, matrix theory, statistical sciences, probability and decision theory, risk and insurance analysis, among others. Applied Mathematics appeals to people with a variety of different interests, ranging from those with a desire to obtain a good quantitative background for use in some future career, to those who are interested in the basic techniques and approaches in themselves. The standard concentration leads to either the A.B. or Sc.B. degree. Students may also choose to pursue a joint program with biology, computer science or economics.

The following description of the honors program applies to concentrators in Applied Mathematics (APMA), APMA-Biology, APMA-Computer Science (with primary APMA advisor), and APMA-Economics (with primary APMA advisor). We strongly recommend that students who wish to pursue honors find an honors thesis advisor by the end of their junior year. To declare are their intention to pursue honors, students must prepare a written outline of the thesis project, secure a faculty advisor and a second reader for their proposed thesis project (one of the two advisors/readers must be an Applied Mathematics faculty member), and submit a completed Honors Declaration Form to Jean Radican (APMA Department).
