NOTE: These suggested schedules assume eight semesters of attendance, beginning in a fall semester, and normal progress. Students should consult with their adviser to determine the best sequence of mathematics courses. Some courses are offered only in fall semesters (MATH 421) and others are only offered in the spring semester (MATH 341 and 425). Some electives are offered only once every year or once every two years, so prior planning is important.
