The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science offers two majors: mathematics and computer science, both leading to the bachelor of science degree.

The department also offers three minors: mathematics, computer science, and an interdisciplinary minor in bioinformatics, offered in cooperation with the Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences . The bioinformatics minor is available in three variations, depending on the student’s major: one for biology or biochemistry majors, one for computer science majors, and one for majors in other disciplines.
