Transfer Policies
Students transferring from non-baccalaureate institutions to Parkside may generally transfer up to 72 credits earned at non-baccalaureate institutions toward the 120 credits required for degree completion. UW-Parkside may accept additional credits toward the degree where appropriate. A minimum of 15 credits numbered 300 or above must be completed at Parkside.
Graduation Requirements | Mathematics
The following requirements are in addition to the university general education requirements. Please use this guide in tandem with the Degree Requirements Transfer Guide.
Mathematics Major | 41-47 credits
The major in mathematics includes options in pure and applied mathematics and teaching mathematics in middle childhood through early adolescence. At least 15 credits of upper-level courses in the major must be completed at UW-Parkside. Students may satisfy a mathematics major by completing the mathematics core and one of the following options or, upon consultation with a mathematics advisor, by developing programs to suit their special needs, subject to the written approval of the Mathematics Department. The following options are minimal, and students are encouraged to elect additional advanced mathematics courses.
