*MAT 115, CHE 101, and CHE 102 replace MAT 111 and the natural sciences part of the Liberal Studies Requirements.

**CHE 101 and CHE 102 are excluded from this total as they are included in the Liberal Studies Core.

be required to complete MAT 095, 097, 115, or 120. This curriculum requires a minimum of 46 semester credit hours of mathematics and a minimum total of 128 semester credit hours. The comprehensive exit assessment is completion of an in-house exit examination.

A minor in chemistry requires the completion of 19 semester credit hours. Specific course requirements include CHE 101/110, 102/120, 301/310, and 302/320; the remaining 3 semester credit hours must be selected from CHE 303, 315/350, 407, and 412.

The Mathematics/Applied (Pre-Engineering) Option is a five-year course of study offered jointly by Kentucky State University and the University of Kentucky. Students in this program attend Kentucky State University for three years of study in the pre-engineering area of their choice, and then transfers to the University of Kentucky. Upon successful completion of the first year at the University of Kentucky, students are awarded the Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics by Kentucky State University. Students are awarded the Bachelor of Science degree in their selected fields of engineering by the University of Kentucky after the final year of study.

A minimum of 120 semester credit hours is required for a major in Mathematics/Applied (Pre-Engineering). In addition to the University’s Liberal Studies requirements (with MAT 131 in place of MAT 111 and PHY 211 in place of a natural sciences requirement), courses required for the specific engineering fields are as follows:

Knowledge of mathematical facts and procedures is indispensable to a satisfactory understanding of every field of science. This is true for both the physical and biological sciences, and even the humanities are influenced by the traditions of mathematical knowledge. Mathematical skills and processes are central to the development and practice of critical thought and expression. Physics is the science that seeks to employ mathematics to explain the universe and its phenomena. Courses in mathematics and physics at Kentucky State University are designed to integrate theoretical and practical topics.

The Division of Mathematics and Sciences offers a Mathematics degree with four options: Pure Mathematics, Mathematics/Applied (Pre-Engineering), Actuarial Science, and Mathematics with Teaching Certification. Minors in Mathematics and Physics are also offered. Additionally, a double major in Mathematics and Computer Science is offered.

For the Actuarial Option, students who satisfy the Liberal Studies requirement through the Liberal Studies General Core course must take MAT 131 in place of MAT 111, ECO 201 in place of ECO 200, PHY 211 in place of the second natural science and MAT 304 in place of the final IGS requirement. Students who satisfy the Liberal Studies requirement through the Whitney Young Honors courses must take MAT 131, PHY 211, and MAT 304 in place of HON 122 and HON 221; students who complete the Whitney Young Core will also need to take ECO 201 to meet the requirements of the major. Additional requirements are: MAT 132, 231, 232, 300, 304, 307, 312, 315, 321, 322, 403, 470, ECO 202, BUA 480; any one additional upper-division mathematics course approved by the mathematics faculty, and 11 hours of approved electives. All required and elective courses must be completed with a grade of C or better. On the basis of placement test scores, students may also be required to complete MAT 095, 097, 115, or 120. This curriculum requires a minimum of 46 semester credit hours of mathematics and a minimum total of 128 semester credit hours. The comprehensive exit assessment is completion of an in-house exit examination.
