The Mathematics Minor is an excellent option for students who want to develop their computational and analytical skills. ECU’s minor in mathematics requires 18 semester hours of mathematics courses including three semesters of calculus. Students complete an additional two or three upper-level courses. These can be chosen to complement the students’ major courses of study, particularly in STEM fields.

The minor requires 18 s.h. as follows:

1. Core - 10-12 s.h.

MATH 2171 - Calculus I
MATH 2152 - Engineering Calculus II or
MATH 2172 - Calculus II
MATH 2153 - Engineering Calculus III or
MATH 2173 - Calculus III

2. Electives - 6-8 s.h.

Choose 6-8 s.h. of MATH electives numbered above 2999.

Note: MATH 2300 may be taken as an elective and is recommended for those who intend to take further math courses.
