The Integrated Math and Science program offers degrees at the BA level. The programs of study combine a strong foundation in mathematics and sciences with further specialization in one specific field. This approach offers a depth of study in one field similar to a BS degree, while providing a well-rounded education in complementary fields in science and mathematics.

  • BA in Integrated Mathematics and Science, Environmental Science Concentration
  • BA in Integrated Mathematics and Science, Biology Concentration
  • BA in Integrated Mathematics and Science, Chemistry Concentration
  • BA in Integrated Mathematics and Science, Mathematics Concentration

With a bachelor of art's degree in math or science and a second major in elementary education, a student is prepared for teaching K-8. Students who do not choose the second major in education are prepared for entry-level positions in a variety of areas such as research, manufacturing, sales, and management. Potential employers include governmental agencies, private consulting firms, and industry. Students are also prepared to continue their education at the post-baccalaureate level.

Integrated Math and Sciences Program Mission Statement:

The Integrated Math and Science program offers degrees at the BA level. The programs of study combine a strong foundation in mathematics and sciences with further specialization in one specific field. This approach offers a depth of study in one field similar to a BS degree, while providing a well-rounded education in complementary fields in science and mathematics. 

Integrated Math and Sciences Program Goals:
