Major:
Mathematics (B.A., B.S.)
Academically equivalent, both bachelor of art and bachelor of science will fully prepare you for a career in mathematics. If you choose to graduate with two majors, and one major is only offered as a B.A. or B.S., the second major should match the first degree. Mathematics majors seeking an education endorsement will receive a B.S. degree.
Mission Statement
The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Nebraska Wesleyan University is committed to offering experiences that help students expand their mathematical and computational knowledge and problem-solving skills, effectively communicate technical concepts, discover the utility and beauty of mathematical and computational constructs, and value life-long learning

**A Mathematics major may earn either a B.A. or B.S. degree. However, if a student has a first major that is associated with a different baccalaureate degree, the Mathematics major may serve as a second major for the degree associated with the first major (B.FA., B.M., B.S.N.).
