Accelerated BS/MS
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics offers a M.S. program in Applied Mathematical Science. Students in the B.S. Actuarial Science program are eligible to pursue, with approval, an M.S. Applied Mathematical Science degree beginning in their senior year. Approved B.S. students may take up to nine credit hours of 5000-level MATH or STAT courses during their senior year of the B.S. program. These courses will count toward both the B.S. and M.S. degrees. A formal application to the M.S. Applied Mathematical Science program and an approval from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics are required. Requirements are located in the UCO Graduate Catalog under Applied Mathematical Science - Mathematics, Applied Mathematical Science - Statistics, or Applied Mathematical Science - Teaching.
Up to nine credit hours of the following courses can be used to satisfy both the B.S. Actuarial Science and the M.S. Applied Mathematical Science programs:
- MATH 5113 Operations Research 1
- MATH 5910 Seminar/Special Topics*
- STAT 5103 Applied Experimental Design
- STAT 5123 Mathematical Statistics 2
- STAT 5213 Applied Regression Analysis
- STAT 5263 Computer Applications in Statistics
- STAT 5303 Nonparametric Statistics
- STAT 5413 Data Visualization
- STAT 5533 Data Mining & Statistical Learning
- STAT 5910 Seminar/Special Topics*
*Students are restricted to one (1) cross-listed 5910 course while classified as an ADP student.
Accelerated BS/PSM
UCO’s P.S.M. (Professional Science Master’s) in Computational Science has partnered with the B.S. in Actuarial Science so that approved students may take up to nine credit hours of 5000-level MATH or STAT courses during their senior year of the B.S. program. These courses will count toward both the B.S. and P.S.M. degrees. A formal application to the P.S.M. Computational Science program and an approval from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics are required. Requirements are located in the UCO Graduate Catalog under Computational Science - Computational Mathematics, P.S.M.
Up to nine credit hours of the following courses can be used to satisfy both the B.S. Actuarial Science and the P.S.M. Computational Science - Computational Mathematics :
- MATH 5113 Operations Research I
- MATH 5263 Numerical Linear Algebra
- MATH 5373 Applied Numerical Analysis
- STAT 5263 Computer Applications in Statistics
- STAT 5213 Applied Regression Analysis
