Allied Disciplines
The department encourages mathematics and computer science majors to take courses in allied disciplines which use or complement the mathematical sciences. In fact, many students complete minors or second majors in such areas as physics, chemistry, economics, business management, pre-med, the biological sciences and psychology. Conversely, many students with majors in allied disciplines complete concentrated study (minor or second major) in mathematics and/or computer science. This is particularly true of students intending to do graduate work in physics, chemistry or economics.
