- | The Department of Mathematics and Statistics (DOMS) is a community of mathematicians and statisticians. We offer degrees at the Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral level. Thus, besides our faculty and post-doctoral visitors, our community includes a large and valuable cadre of hard-working and talented undergraduate and graduate students. | + | The **Department of Mathematics and Statistics (DOMS)** is a vibrant community where mathematicians and statisticians converge to explore, innovate, and educate. We offer a comprehensive range of academic programs, spanning the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels. Thus, besides our faculty and postdoctoral visitors, our community includes a large and valuable cadre of hard-working and talented undergraduate and graduate students. |
- | At the [[ug|undergraduate]] level, we have two kinds of degrees: general degrees for majors in **Mathematical Sciences** are labeled **Bachelor of Arts (BA)**, while our more intensive undergraduate degrees are labeled **Bachelor of Science (BS)**. There are both mathematics tracks and [[:actuary:|actuarial science]] tracks within both degrees. There is also a track in Statistics for the BA degree. For more details, see the page on the [[ug|undergraduate programs]]. A minor in mathematics is also possible. | + | At the [[ug|undergraduate]] level, we have two kinds of degrees: general degrees for majors in **Mathematical Sciences** are labeled **Bachelor of Arts (BA)**, while our more intensive undergraduate degrees are labeled **Bachelor of Science (BS)**.
