This program is intended for students planning to work on the interface between Mathematics and other fields or who may want to go to graduate school in Applied Mathematics.

All courses used to satisfy major requirements must be taken for a letter grade, and must be completed with a C- or better.

Lower Division Requirements

1. One of the following sequences:
  a. Math 20A-B-C-D-E-F
    Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations
  b. Math 31AH-BH-CH, 20D
    Honors Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations

2. One of the following:
  MAE 9 C/C++ Programming
  MAE 10 FORTRAN for Engineers
  CSE 8A/AL-B Introduction to Computer Science: Java
  CSE 11 Introduction to Computer Science: Java (Accelerated Pace)

Upper Division Requirements

1. Math 109 Mathematical Reasoning
(students completing Math 31CH may replace Math 109 with a 4-unit Upper-division Math elective)
2. One of the following:
  Math 102 Applied Linear Algebra
  or  
  Math 170A Numerical Linear Algebra
3. One of the following:
  Math 140A-B Foundations of Real Analysis
  or  
  Math 142A-B Intro to Analysis
4. One of the following sequences:
  Math 180A-B-C-181A Probability and Statistics
  or  
  Math 180A-181A and any two from 181B-C-D-E
  or  
  (Math 183 or 180A-181A) and any three from 170A-B-C-172-173
5. One additional sequence from the list #4 above or from the following list:
  Math 110A-B Partial Differential Equations and Integral Equations
  Math 110A-120A-130A Partial Differential Equations, Complex Analysis, Ordinary Differential Equations
  Math 120A-B Complex Analysis
  Math 152-184A Applicable Mathematics and Computing, Combinatorics
  Math 154-184A Discrete Mathematics and Graph Theory, Combinatorics
  Math 155A-B Computer Graphics
  Math 171A-B Mathematical Programming - Numerical Optimization
  Math 193A-B Actuarial Mathematics

At least 13 four-unit, upper-division mathematics courses, except:

a. Up to 3 four-unit upper-division courses may be outside the department in an approved applied mathematical area. A petition approved by an applied math adviser is required. No such units may also be used for a minor or program of concentration.

b. MAE 107, Econ. 120A-B-C, Math. 195, 196, 197, 199, and 199H cannot be counted toward the upper-division requirements.

To be prepared for a strong major curriculum, students should complete the last three quarters of the 20 sequence and Mathematics 109 before the end of their sophomore year.
