BS in Computer Science and BS in Mathematical Sciences - Computational Mathematics

Computer Science prepares you to design and implement software and systems for every domain of our daily lives, such as finance, pharmaceutical, technology and management fields. Computer scientists think logically to build and implement computer algorithms, work with operating systems, databases, firewalls and web servers – and write programs for computer gaming, mobile computing, and wireless systems.The B.S. in Mathematical Sciences provides a strong foundation in the core areas of mathematics and empowers students to apply mathematical and statistical analysis to careers in research and development, medicine, computing, finance and other industries. In the Mathematical Sciences B.S program, students will gain a strong, fundamental understanding of both applied and pure mathematics, which they can apply to a diverse set of concentrated career fields including mathematics, natural sciences, computer science, social sciences or business. The program’s objective is to prepare students for graduate studies or successful careers in mathematical science and related fields.

All students who apply to NJIT must submit an official high school transcript in English. When evaluating your application for undergraduate admission, we are interested in understanding how you challenged yourself relative to the curriculum that was available at your school and the trends in your performance - especially your grades in math, science, and English. Your completed coursework should include English Composition, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Chemistry and Physics. We also consider the GPA that is indicated on your high school transcript. We look for students in the top 25 percent of their class. For schools that don't use a ranking system, we consider a 3.0 GPA or higher to be equivalent.
