Objective

The primary objective of the Department of Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics is to provide students with experiences in both the theoretical and practical applications of mathematics, mathematics education, statistics, and computer science.

Majors

Computer Science: minimum of 37 s.h. in computer science including 25 s.h. of core courses and 12-18 s.h. of other computer science courses within one of two career goal options. The standard/technical option requires 23 s.h. in mathematics and statistics and 18 s.h. of upper division electives and the applied option requires 19 s.h. in mathematics and statistics and 9 s.h. in business and 12 s.h. of upper division electives.  

Mathematics: minimum of 39 s.h. in the mathematical sciences including 12 s.h. of calculus, 4 s.h of discrete mathematics, 9 s.h. of algebra, 8 s.h. of analysis, and 6 s.h. of electives of 200 or 300 level MATH courses (except MATH 295 ) or STAT 361 STAT 362 , or STAT 369.

Statistics: minimum of 49 s.h. in the mathematical sciences, including 12 s.h. of calculus, 30 s.h. of statistics, and 6 s.h. in related work.

Elementary Education Concentrations

Computer Science & Technology: minimum of 30 s.h. including 19 s.h. of computer science, 4 s.h. of calculus, 4 s.h. of discrete mathematics, and 3 s.h. of statistics.

Mathematics: minimum of 36 s.h. including 8 s.h. of calculus, 16 s.h. of prescribed mathematics courses, 6-7 s.h. mathematics electives, 3 s.h. of statistics, and 3 s.h. of computer science.

Special Program

The Mathematics, Computer Science and Statistics Department participates in a Cooperative (3-2) Engineering Program in which the student attends SUNY Oneonta for the first three years and either SUNY Buffalo, Syracuse University, Polytechnic Institute of New York, or Clarkson College for the last two years. On completion, the student receives a B.A. in Mathematics from SUNY Oneonta and a B.S. in Engineering from the engineering school.
