The Mathematics Department at San Jose State University offers several Bachelor's degrees in mathematics. The B. A. Mathematics degree is our most flexible degree and is a good choice for students planning to go on to graduate school in mathematics and students that just like mathematics who don't yet have a specific career goal in mind. The B. A. Mathematics Preparation for Secondary Teaching is designed for aspiring high school math teachers as its curriculum encompasses subject areas which satisfy the mathematics subject matter competency required by the credential program.
The B. S. Applied and Computational Mathematics (B.S. ACM) degree is designed for students who want a career using mathematics in business, government, or industry. Students pursuing this degree must select one of three concentrations: Emphasis in Economics, Finance, and Actuarial Science, Emphasis in Applied Mathematics or Emphasis in Statistics.
