Recommendations

It is recommended that the 200- and 300-level courses listed above be taken in the first two years of study. Students should consult with the Undergraduate Director on a regular basis throughout their program.

Concentrations

Students may focus their program on one of two areas of interest by including a specified set of courses into their Major degree. Successful completion will mean that the area of concentration will appear on the transcript. Students should carefully plan their course selections to ensure that prerequisites for upper-level courses are obtained. Consultation with the Undergraduate Director on a regular basis is highly recommended.

A. Concentration in Mathematical Finance and Risk Management

The first 4.0 FCE required in the Concentration, up to and including Applied Mathematics 311, are the same as in the Major program. The remaining 16.0 FCE required in the Concentration are:

0.5 FCE - Mathematics 323

1.0 FCE - Computer Science 231 and 233 or Computer Science 235 and Actuarial Science 325
