Associate Professors Chaderjian, Ou, Towse

Mathematics is a universal part of human culture. It is also the quantitative language of the social, biological, and physical sciences. For these reasons, mathematics is a valuable and essential component of a liberal arts education. All Scripps students are encouraged to enroll in math courses whether or not they are considering a major in mathematics. Students planning to enroll in math courses must take the placement exam given during fall orientation at Scripps.

A major or minor in mathematics can lead to a career in a variety of areas, including business, industry, government, insurance (as an actuary), or teaching. Students who want to enroll in mathematics courses other than those offered at Scripps should consult the mathematics faculty. A catalog, Mathematics Courses at Claremont, lists all mathematics courses offered in The Claremont Colleges and is available in the registrar’s office and from the mathematics faculty.
