Department of Mathematics & Computer Science

 

About the Department


At Westminster, Mathematics majors develop close relationships with their faculty mentors through classes, undergraduate research, and extracurricular activities. The program provides the flexibility to apply mathematics to your passions through interdisciplinary work. The math program’s emphasis on developing skills in problem solving, coding, collaboration, and communication has led graduates to successful careers in a variety of fields, including data science, finance, actuarial science, and education.

The Computer Science and Computer Information Systems majors prepare our students in two fundamental ways. First, they are schooled in the fundamental computer science principles and underlying mathematics that form the foundation for all current and future advances in the field. Second, our program exposes students to technologies, software and programming paradigms relevant to the current state of the art in the field. With these combined approaches, our students succeed with today’s technologies and software and are uniquely positioned to adapt to future changes.
