Do you enjoy the challenge of solving puzzles and finding patterns? Do you like applying your knowledge to solve real problems in the physical world? If so, you should consider a minor in mathematics.
With a minor in mathematics at PLNU, you’ll take classes in theoretical and applied mathematics and gain a general understanding of the power of mathematics as a tool in a wide variety of circumstances. Defined as the search for patterns in things that do not appear to be similar, mathematics gives results that are beautiful and incredibly applicable.
A minor in mathematics is a great supplement to a major in a related field, such as computer science, physics, chemistry, or cross-disciplinary studies (teacher preparation). It can provide you with a broader perspective, and ultimately help you in your future studies and career. At PLNU, you can look forward to classes where you'll receive practical experience while working closely with other students and professors in a highly collaborative environment.
The Department of Mathematical, Information, and Computer Sciences (MICS) is dedicated to helping you discover your calling and how your academic abilities connect with that call. MICS is committed to maintaining a curriculum that provides you with the tools to be productive, the passion to continue learning, and Christian perspectives that provide a basis for making sound professional decisions.
