Virtually every sector of employment seeks highly skilled mathematicians —from academia to commerce, finance, and health sciences, to government labs and national security, as well as STEM fields. Drexel University’s undergraduate and graduate Mathematics degrees open doors far beyond traditional paths.
Our undergraduate Mathematics programs are intentionally flexible, allowing students to double major and easily integrate courses from other disciplines.
At Drexel, you won’t just study mathematics — you’ll learn how to apply it. Meaningful experiential learning begins as early as your first year by working alongside top faculty researchers to gain strong foundations in pure and applied mathematics. Mathematics students join a community of motivated peers who work together to build knowledge and practical skills that position them for success.
Majors
Mathematics BS
Drexel’s BS in Mathematics degree gives students the tools, perspective, and versatility to leverage the power of mathematics to achieve their professional goals. Our program emphasizes competency across three interrelated, core skill sets: abstract reasoning, mathematical modeling, and computational tools.
Mathematics BA
Drexel’s BA in Mathematics degree provides a strong general mathematics background while allowing students to create a program tailored to their interests. This type of math degree is particularly beneficial for students pursuing double majors or careers in education, actuarial science, medicine and more.
Mathematical Statistics BS
Drexel’s BS in Mathematical Statistics degree offers students the tools, perspective, and versatility to harness the power of data and contribute to informed decision-making. The BS in Mathematical Statistics curriculum equips students with specialized skills in mathematics, including data analytics, statistics, probability, and experimental design. Students build knowledge with foundational coursework in computer science, computer programming, and research methods. Here, students combine theory with computation to understand statistical tools and leverage them effectively with industry-standard software and programming languages.
