Calculus Requirements for a Minor in Mathematics

Notes:

  1. M 172 or M 182 are recommended since they are prerequisites for many upper-division mathematics courses.

  2. Notice to Transfer Students: Mathematical Sciences courses that are not equivalent to courses taught at UM-Missoula can often be counted toward a Minor in Mathematics. This is determined on an individual basis; please contact the Department of Mathematical Sciences for details.

Elective Courses for a Minor in Mathematics

Rule: Take 23 credits in M or STAT courses offered at UM-Missoula. M courses must be numbered M 115 or higher (excluding M 118). Courses must include at least three courses chosen from M 274 and 3- or 4-credit courses at the 300 level or above. At least two of the three courses must be taken at UM-Missoula.

Note:

  1. The required Calculus course (M 162, M 172, or M 182) counts toward the 23 credits, as well as its prerequisite courses at the 100-level (e.g., M 171 or M 121).

  2. Notice to Transfer Students: Mathematical Sciences courses that are not equivalent to courses taught at UM-Missoula can often be counted toward a Minor in Mathematics. This is determined on an individual basis; please contact the Department of Mathematical Sciences for details.
