MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENTAL HONORS » Program Prerequisite: Enroll in General Honors Program and complete at least 6 hours of General Honors courses (see the Honors Program on page 43). » Grade Requirements: Maintain an overall GPA of 3.3 and a mathematics GPA of 3.3. » Credit Hour Requirements: Fulfill the requirements for the departmental Mathematics major (regular emphasis) and some extras, including Math 4910 and 9 hours of upper division Mathematics courses taken for Honors credit, i.e.: Complete Math SI 1210, 1220, 2210, 2270, 2280, 4110, 4120, 4210, 4220 plus 15 more hours of upper division mathematics courses (grades of "C" or better required). Nine of the upper division hours must be for Honors credit.* and Complete Math 4910 Senior Research Project and Complete Physics PS/SI2210 and SI2220 and Complete a minor and Complete general education requirements *To take a mathematics course for Honors aedit, do the following: Enroll in the course, fill out an Agreement for Departmental Honors Component Credit form with the instructor which both the instructor and student should sign, and turn the form in to the Honors Program by the second week of the semester. Then abide by the contract. The requirements will be the regular course assignments plus some extra work which will vary with the course and the instructor, but it could include writing a paper, doing an extra project, doing extra readings and reporting on them, and/or giving a talk to the class (or in some other forum). The extra part of the cowse will be a significant assignment. MATHEMATICS » Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better in all courses used toward the minor (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable). » Credit Hour Requirements: Minimum of 20 credit hours for regular emphasis and 24 credit hours for Mathematics Teaching minor. At least one upper-division mathematics course for three credit hours must be completed at Weber State University. Students who select the Mathematics Teaching Minor must satisfy the Teacher Education admission and certification requtements (see Teacher Education Department).
