一些学生可能需要完成(或将受益于完成)MATH1102微积分I(数学/科学专业)和/或math1103微积分II(数学/科学专业)为专业做准备. Well-prepared students with a strong Calculus BC program may, and sometimes should, begin directly in MATH2202. 特别强的学生可以申请荣誉部分MATH2203,并应联系本科课程助理主席. 关于微积分课程的更多信息和选择正确的微积分课程的建议可以在 rockmark.net/mathadvise.
每个学生都应该直接咨询本科课程助理主席或电子游戏软件指导时的数学顾问,以确定适合他们情况的适当和推荐的微积分选择.
Departmental Honors
文理学士或理学士考生如符合以下要求,将获颁数学系荣誉学位:
- Completion of the mathematics requirements for the B.S. degree.
- A grade point average of at least 3.3 in all mathematics courses numbered 3000 and above.
- Completion, as one of the required electives, of an honors thesis course MATH4961; or an independent study course MATH4901 under the direction of a faculty member; or completion, as one of the required electives, of one graduate course at the 8000 level.
每个学生的荣誉课程必须由本科课程助理主席单独批准.

Information for Study Abroad
Normally, Mathematics majors should have completed MATH2202/3, MATH2210/1, and MATH2216 before going abroad. For students going abroad in the second semester of junior year only, 您还应该在离开之前至少完成MATH3310/MATH3311或MATH3320/MATH3321中的一门.
Students usually may take no more than two 在国外修数学专业的学分课程, 不过,如果主办机构提供合适的课程,也可以例外. All courses to be used for major credit must be approved beforehand.
在国外学习什么类型的数学课程没有限制, but usually each will be counted as an elective. 最常见的选择包括微分方程课程, Numerical Analysis, Graph Theory/Combinatorics, Number Theory, Complex Analysis, Probability and Statistics, Mathematical Modeling, and Operations Research.
Substitutes for the required 3000-level courses in Algebra and Analysis may be available while abroad; however, these titles are generic. Thus, 在国外学习这两门课程中的任何一门,你都要和系里核实一下,这是非常重要的, to be sure that the level of the course matches your background.
对于课程批准,请联系本科课程助理主席.
Choosing Courses and Fulfilling Core Requirements
电子游戏软件的所有学生都必须完成一门数学课程,这是大学核心课程的一部分. 在微积分AB或BC大学先修课程考试中获得4分或更高的分数(一旦被招生办公室记录在你的成绩单上),你就可以免除这个核心要求.
Some schools or major programs, however, may require more than this minimum, or perhaps require a specific Calculus course or courses. 属于这些类别的学生(或正在认真考虑选择这些类别专业的学生)的基本准则如下:
主修数学、物理、化学、计算机科学和地质科学
In your first semester of freshman year, enroll in MATH1102 Calculus I (Math/Science Majors), MATH1103 Calculus II (Math/Science Majors), or MATH2202 Multivariable Calculus. 如果你学了一年扎实的微积分,MATH1103通常是最合适的选择. Well-prepared students with a strong Calculus BC program may, and sometimes should, begin directly in MATH2202. 特别强的学生可以申请MATH2202的荣誉部分,并应联系本科课程助理主席.
Majors in Life and Social Science (E.g.(生物学、神经科学、经济学、管理学)和所有医学预科学生
在大一的第一学期注册一门微积分课程MATH1100(微积分I), MATH1101 (Calculus II), or MATH2202 (Multivariable Calculus). If you have had a solid year of calculus (the AB curriculum), MATH1101 is usually the most appropriate choice. Particularly well-prepared students should consider MATH2202. If you have a strong interest in mathematics, 你应该考虑从上面提到的MATH1102-MATH1103-MATH2202序列中选择微积分课程.
Other Students
为所有其他寻求满足数学核心要求的学生, 你可以在任何时候参加核心水平的数学课程——它不需要(有时根本不可能)在大一马上完成. 你当然可以选择选修微积分课程作为核心课程, 但通常会有更合适的课程供你选择, such as:
- MATH1004 Finite Probability and Applications
- MATH1007 Ideas in Mathematics
- MATH1180健康科学统计原理(CSON学生)
- 数学基础I (LSOE学生在基础教育或人类发展), only)
