    Mathematics provides a powerful language for expressing and answering questions about the world around us. The evolution of communication and technology has made that language part of our daily lives.

    Goal 3 of ISU's general education requirements recognizes the importance of mathematics in a university education. Courses that satisfy the goal are:
    • MATH 123, Mathematics in Modern Society, 3 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 025
    • MATH 127, The Language of Mathematics, 3 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 025
    • MATH 130, Finite Mathematics, 4 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 108
    • MATH 160, Brief Calculus, 4 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 143
    • MATH 170, Calculus I, 4 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 147, or MATH 143 and 144
    • MATH 253, Introduction to Statistics, 3 cr.
      Prerequisite: MATH 108
    The Department of Mathematics offers Bachelor of Science and Associate of Science degrees in Mathematics and a mathematics minor. Students in the B.S. program may choose their upper-division mathematics electives to emphasize pure mathematics, applied mathematics, or statistics. The department also supports programs in the College of Education through a teaching major for students in Elementary Education and a teaching major, teaching minor, and single-subject teaching major for students in Secondary Teacher Education.

    Mathematics and Computer Sciences majors activities can be found at Math/CS Club

    Financial support is available via competitively-awarded undergraduate scholarships, offered through the University Recognition Awards and Robert D. Girse fund.

    $2500 fellowship is also available for ISU undergraduate Science and Engineering Students in Biological Sciences, Geosciences, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and Engineering.
