| Substantial Modification to Mathematics Program Description |
| The Associate of Science Mathematics prepares students to transfer to a four-year institution for continued study in mathematics, and/or mathematics education. As technology increases, the level of mathematics in the job market also increases. A two-year degree in mathematics gives students analytical skills that are valued in industry. A four-year degree in mathematics opens doors in many areas not traditionally thought of as mathematical. Business, industry, and government hire people who earn a bachelor’s degree in mathematics to provide support services involving analysis modeling or scientific computing. This proposal updates the Physics requirement (General Education courses), adds program requirements in Programming and Discrete Structures, and changes General Education Electives to any electives. |
