Mathematics (Minor)

About This Program

The undergraduate division of the Department of Mathematics offers a wide variety of courses in both pure and applied mathematics. Faculty are members of the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, which has become a leading research center through its tradition of integrating mathematical theory and applications. Students who complete any four (4) MATH-UA courses (numbered MATH-UA 120 or higher) are eligible to declare a minor in Mathematics. Students who have a mathematics requirement for their major or joint major must be mindful of not double-counting more than two (2) MATH-UA courses between this minor and their major's program of study. Please view the policies tab for more information. To request declaration of a CAS minor, CAS students should visit the host department. To request declaration of a minor in another NYU school, CAS students should complete the online Minor Application available in their Albert Student Center. Students may also use the Minor Application in Albert to request cancellation of a minor in CAS or in another NYU unit. The minor requires the completion of any four (4) MATH-UA courses numbered MATH-UA 120 or higher. Courses from the traditional Calculus sequence (MATH-UA 121 Calculus I, MATH-UA 122 Calculus II, MATH-UA 123 Calculus III) and the Mathematics for Economics Sequence (MATH-UA 131 Mathematics for Economics I, MATH-UA 132 Mathematics for Economics II, MATH-UA 133 Mathematics for Economics III) cannot both be applied to the minor in Mathematics. Students must choose one sequence or the other and cannot mix-and-match, combine, or double-count between the Calculus and Mathematics for Economics sequences. Also note that students cannot register simultaneously for separate courses within the two sequences.
