Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with Emphasis in Life Sciences

Program Overview

If you want to prepare for medical school or graduate studies in biology or health-related fields, consider this degree. A strong foundation in mathematics is integral to all scientific fields. Students earning this Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics with a Life Sciences emphasis choose a minor or an additional major in a life science field. This dual immersion enables students to apply mathematical concepts to their studies in biological sciences. Undergraduates develop diversified knowledge and skills required for environmental fieldwork, scientific research or graduate/professional studies in medicine. They go on to find solutions and effect change in disease management and prevention and ecosystem and planetary health.

Learning Outcomes

Apply computational methods; Math majors should be able to apply computational methods and mathematical concepts to analyze scientific problems
Apply mathematical models to current problems; Math majors should be able to critically evaluate and extend selected mathematical models in the current scientific literature.
Create valid proofs; Students should be able to identify an appropriate proof strategy and almost always able to create a correct proof using multiple strategies as appropriate.
Define Terms Precisely; Precision is essential in mathematics, and a crucial skill for math majors is to learn to define mathematical terms precisely.
Effective communication of results; Math majors should be able to effectively communicate results to non-specialized audiences in written and verbal form.
Recognize valid arguments; Logical rigor is a critical component of mathematical argumentation. We expect math majors to develop the ability to recognize when arguments are valid, and identify logical gaps and flaws.

Work Permit

PGWP

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.

It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.

A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):

Pre-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment provided to F-1 students before completion of their course of study.
Post-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment available to F-1 students after completing their course of study.
24 Month STEM Extension: Students enrolled in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses can a 24-month extension after their initial Post-Completion OPT authorization.
