Mathematics Department
In addition to courses that support the core curriculum, the Mathematics Department also offers a full major and minor in mathematics.
Students graduating with a bachelor’s degree in mathematics are prized for their ability to reason effectively, think logically, and solve problems rationally.
These skills are the foundation for successful careers in business, finance, education, industry, or law, as well as graduate school.
Students who major in mathematics benefit from small class sizes and individualized attention throughout their studies at Cabrini.
Special student interests are encouraged, and courses are often specially designed to meet each student’s needs.
