Mathematics Minor
Mathematics is extensively used throughout the disciplines, including the sciences, engineering, finance, and social
sciences. For those already engaging in disciplines with higher mathematics courses, the mathematics minor
provides an opportunity to deepen their understanding into their own fields and develop professional tools that may
not be commonly available to their peers. The minor in mathematics is appropriate for all NSU students looking to
broaden their mathematical horizons.
