Curriculum Requirements
The Mathematics and Physics Programs develop a student’s understanding of the nature, power, scope, and beauty of mathematical thought within a Catholic liberal arts tradition. The mathematics curriculum provides students with a solid foundation in theoretical, practical, and computational aspects of the discipline. In conjunction with the integrated Core Curriculum, our courses help form habits of mind and hone intellectual skills that equip the student for a lifetime of learning.
