note:
 the minor requirement in applied mathematics is automatically satisfied.  ma 1314 - calculus i (4) f, sp, su , must be taken during the fall semester of the freshman year in order to enroll in ph 2414  in the spring semester. otherwise, completion of the program may require more than eight semesters. students who are not eligible to begin in the calculus sequence should consider enrolling in ma 1123  in the summer session before starting freshmen year. |
