Minor

Department requirements for the minor in Mathematics can be found here.

Honors

Honors Math majors must complete the basic 64 unit program required of all majors. An additional 6 units of Math 197, Senior Thesis, (typically spaced over two quarters) is required. Click here for details (under "Honors Program" towards the bottom of the page).

It is strongly recommended that the 50s honors sequence (Math 51H, 52H and 53H) be taken during the student's freshman year. This is a recommendation, not a requirement.

Research

Stanford Undergraduate Research Institute in Mathematics

The Stanford Undergraduate Research Institute in Mathematics (SURIM) is an eight week program that provides Stanford undergraduates the opportunity to work on mathematical problems in an extra-curricular context. Most students will work on interesting mathematical problems in a collaborative environment. A number will work one-on-one with faculty member. Summer funding will be available for some students, thanks to VPUE; others will obtain course credit in the fall quarter for participating.
Application deadline: March 1, 2012
