数学文科学士学位

数学是普林斯顿大学用途最广泛的专业之一，在这里的学生有机会与世界上最好的数学家一起在纯粹和应用数学的各个基本领域开展合作。专业课程非常灵活，为具有严格数学证明背景的学生以及具有较强数学才能和兴趣的新手提供了令人兴奋的机会。对于我们的许多学生而言，第一门证明课程（通常为215（单个变量的荣誉分析））是真正的数学思维方面的第一门认真的经历，而未来的专业人士通常会认为这是一项极具挑战性但不可抗拒的经历。我们的本科专业由一群思想丰富，思想独立，充满好奇心的人组成。近年来，我们拥有大约70-75个专业，他们的学习课
Mathematics is one of the most versatile majors at Princeton and students here have the opportunity to work with some of the best mathematicians in the world in a wide variety of fundamental areas of both pure and applied mathematics. The program for majors is extremely flexible, providing exciting opportunities both for students who enter with a strong background in rigorous mathematical proof as well as for novices with strong mathematical aptitude and interest. For many of our students the first proof course, typically 215 (Honors Analysis in a Single Variable), is the first serious experience with true mathematical thinking, and future majors generally find it a deeply challenging but irresistibly intriguing experience. Our undergraduate majors form a large group of independent-minded and curious people with a rich variety of intellectual interests. In recent years we have had approximately 70-75 majors and their programs of study include advanced courses in many other disciplines such as computer science, physics, economics and finance, biology and philosophy. A substantial fraction of our majors write a senior thesis with an advisor from one of these other departments, along with a second reader from mathematics. After Princeton, many go on to graduate studies in pre-eminent mathematics programs, but others pursue their interests in these other disciplines instead, where their mathematical training is a crucial advantage.
