Department of Mathematics and Philosophy

WIU mathematics students study fundamental mathematical areas by taking core courses. Depending on the choice of option they further their education in either Teacher Education, pure or applied mathematics. Focus areas allow students to develop interdisciplinary skills.

New for Spring 2024: The Mathematics, Data Science and Statistics, and Actuarial Science options of the Mathematics major will be offered at the WIU QC campus via hybrid mode. Many of the courses, typically taken during freshman and sophomore years, will be offered at the QC campus in person. Other, general education, electives, and upper division option courses, will be offered via live-stream, hybrid and/or other virtual formats.
