To be eligible for the honors program, a student must have completed at least 60 credits and at least 12 credits of FAU mathematics courses.

To be admitted to the program, the student must apply to the departmental honors coordinator.

A student completing the honors track will receive the designation “Honors in

1. Completion of MAT 4970, Honors Thesis, or
2. Completion of 6 credits of graduate-level mathematics courses*

* Graduate Courses at the 5000 level or higher, excluding courses intended for the M.S.T. programs.

** As with all degree programs, the authoritative source for the degree requirements is the University Catalog that was in effect for the academic year in which the student entered the University. The information on this page does not supersede the Catalog.
