About This Program

The joint major in Mathematics and Computer Science is an interdisciplinary program of study offered by the Departments of Mathematics and Computer Science at the renowned Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, an independent division of New York University. The Courant Institute is one of the top-ranked mathematics departments worldwide and is well-known for its pioneering history in the field of applied mathematics. This major offers the opportunity for deep study of the field of computer science alongside such relevant mathematical fields as analysis, algebra, probability, statistics, combinatorics, and numerical analysis. The prerequisite for declaring this major is completion of either CSCI-UA 101 Intro to Computer Science or CSCI-UA 102 Data Structures (depending on placement) with a C or better. This is a twenty-course (80-credit) interdisciplinary major offered by the Departments of Computer Science and Mathematics. The honors degree will be awarded to students with outstanding performance in the program. To be eligible for this distinction students must:
