Intra-institutional Dual Degree

Mathematics / Computer Science (Dual)

Bachelor degrees from the Mathematics & Computer Science program provide a foundation in analytical reasoning and problem-solving. While Computer Science is primarily housed in the College of Engineering, Math majors in Arts & Sciences can seamlessly integrate the two through a data science concentration or a specialized dual degree.

Students have the unique opportunity to earn degrees in both Mathematics and Computer Science simultaneously through a dual major option. Additionally, students benefit from a top-tier research environment where they can apply mathematical theory to cutting-edge fields like cryptography, mathematical biology, and AI.
