Mathematics

The Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science in Mathematics at Rutgers University–Camden offer students a comprehensive and rigorous education in both pure and applied mathematics. The curriculum includes foundational courses in calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations, as well as advanced topics such as abstract algebra, real analysis, number theory, and mathematical modeling. Students may also explore applied areas like statistics, computational mathematics, and data science.

The program is designed to develop strong analytical, logical reasoning, and problem-solving skills that are highly valued across a wide range of careers. Students benefit from small class sizes, close faculty mentorship, and opportunities to engage in independent research, internships, and interdisciplinary projects.

Graduates are well prepared for careers in education, actuarial science, data analysis, finance, software development, operations research, and government, as well as for advanced study in mathematics, engineering, economics, or the sciences. The department also supports students pursuing teaching certification through its collaboration with the School of Education.
