Dowling’s School of Arts and Sciences degree programs are built on a
well-rounded core curriculum of arts and humanities, natural science,
mathematics and social sciences. These are the classic building blocks
that ensure career versatility in an ever-changing world. The mathematics
program offers two options. Students may pursue a traditional
mathematics major course of study in theoretical mathematics in
preparation for further graduate study in mathematics or a Secondary
Mathematics Education track for preparation and certification for teaching
mathematics at the secondary school level.
Students seeking certification to teach Mathematics at the secondary
level must consult an education advisor.
Career Outcomes for Mathematics Majors
