Program Prerequisite: Be declared as a Mathematics major and complete all corresponding requirements. Grade Requirements: Maintain an overall GPA of 3.3 and a mathematics GPA of 3.3. Additional Requirements: Complete an undergraduate project/research-study or equivalent supervised by a faculty mentor, and present the findings in a public forum. To fulfill this requirement, students must enroll in MATH 4910 and complete the following: a. Research or equivalent project supervised by faculty mentor, and b. Presentatio n o f research and required attendance at seminar talks. Students may sign up for MATH 4910 any semester, subject to the approval of the faculty mentor. If the presentation takes place in a later semester, students will receive a T grade until the presentation is complete. The setting for the presentation will be determined by the faculty mentor. Students who have not completed their General Education requirements are encouraged to take Honors General Education classes.
