Applied Mathematics — Data Science Option (DTSC)
The Applied Discrete Mathematics curriculum prepares students for graduate study in Mathematics or theoretical Computer Science, and for careers in fields supported by discrete mathematics. This includes graph theory, operations research, discrete optimization, computer science, communications, and information sciences. An Accelerated Bachelor’s/Master’s program leading to a Master’s in Data Science is also available for students in this curriculum.

Students must complete a two-course sequence in either HIST or LIT (for example, World History 1 and 2 or American Lit 1 and 2). For complete HIST and LIT sequence options, see the Bulletin.
- 2
Students who choose a HIST sequence other than HIST 1010 and HIST 1020 should talk to an advisor about CORE SOC SCI choices.
- 3
If a LIT sequence is chosen, this course must be a CORE SOC SCI. If a HIST sequence is chosen, this course must be a CORE HUMANITIES.
