To develop a more mature appreciation of the significance of mathematics and its impact on today’s world, each student is required to take one semester of mathematics chosen from a set of courses designed to appeal to a variety of interests. In addition to courses in mathematics, the department offers a wide variety of courses in computer science and information systems.

Brooklyn Campus

Students may take a major or minor in Mathematics, a major or a minor in Computer Information Technology or a minor in Computer Science. Child Study majors may take a concentration in Mathematics.

Long Island Campus

Students may take a  major or minor in Mathematics, a major or minor in Computer Information Technology or a major or minor in Computer Science. Child Study majors take a concentration in Mathematics or in Mathematics/Computer Science. The department offers a program for secondary education students that allows them to earn both their bachelor’s and master’s degrees within five years. Many of the courses in both Mathematics and Computer Science may be offered toward the completion of several certificate programs.
