Show Arts, Letters and Science — Mathematics Arts, Letters and Science — Mathematics select approved electives in the place of the modern language. It is recommended that majors planning graduate work obtain at least a reading knowledge of French or German or other approved modern language. Departmental Minors—Mathematics 107, 111, 112, 113 and in addition at least eight credit hours to be chosen from mathematics courses numbered above 307. At least one four-credit hour course numbered above 307 must be completed at Weber State College. Teaching Major—Courses submitted to satisfy the Physical Science area requirement must include 10 credit hours from Physics 261, 262, 263, 264, 265, 266 and/or Chemistry 121, 122. (See Physical Science area requirements.) Required mathematics courses are: Mathematics 107, 111, 112, 113, 114, 301, 310, 312 and, in addition, at least 16 credit hours of courses selected from Mathematics 321, 322, 323, 331, 332, 335, 341, 342, 414, 471, 472. Other courses numbered above 307 may be substituted on approval of the Mathematics Department. At least eight credit hours of mathematics courses numbered above 307 must be earned at Weber State College. Teaching Minor-Mathematics 107, 111, 112, 113 and 310 or 331 and 312 or 414. Mathematics 301 is a recommended elective for teaching minors. At least one four-credit hour course numbered above 307 must be completed at Weber State College. Composite Teaching Major in Physical Sciences—See Mathematics and Physical Science, Composite Teaching Major, School of Education. Note: A grade point average of 2.00 is required of all majors and minors in all mathematics courses (all mathematics courses taken will be used in computing the average, including repeated courses.)
