The Mathematics Honors Program provides an opportunity for outstanding mathematics majors to embark in intensive study and/or perform research in areas of special interest. A student desiring to enter the honors program must be majoring in mathematics, must have completed at least MATH 2173  and MATH 2300 , and must possess a minimum GPA of 3.5 in all mathematics courses taken at East Carolina University. Exceptions to these requirements may be made at the discretion of the department chair (or designee). Admittance to the honors program requires a student to meet the aforementioned requirements and to obtain approval of a faculty mentor from the mathematics undergraduate director. A student in the honors program must enroll in MATH 3550  and MATH 4550 . Each honors student will carry out an extensive program of carefully supervised reading and/or research on a topic of mutual interest to both the student and mentor. To receive honors, a student must complete both MATH 3550  and MATH 4550  with at least a B (3.0).
