In recent years, there has been enormous growth and development in applications of mathematics to business problems. The Business Mathematics and Statistics program was planned to make some of these powerful tools available to students in the College of Commerce. The basic sequence of BMS 125, BMS 126 and BMS 142 is intended to help students gain insight and understanding into some fundamental principles of mathematics and to show how these principles are related to typical business situations.  Additionally, the sequence provides a background for those whose needs and interests require advanced study in quantitative methods.

Courses in Business Mathematics and Statistics are offered only as supporting studies and electives. Business Mathematics and Statistics does not offer a major or minor program.
