Why study this program?

Do you love math and reading? With this program, you don’t have to choose! A Bachelor of Arts in Math is similar to a Bachelor of Science in Math, except that it incorporates more of a liberal arts focus into your core requirements. This approach of combining scientific principles with liberal-arts concepts is also found in fields such as linguistics, psychology, and anthropology, and produces well-rounded and versatile graduates.

This major can also be taken as part of a BA Honors degree.
