Mathematics Endorsement

The Mathematics endorsement is offered in collaboration with other departments on the WSU Vancouver campus and WSU Pullman. It involves 44 hours of coursework. WSU Vancouver does not offer a mathematics major. Students may pursue this endorsement as a focus area within a CLA bachelors degree program. The endorsement in Mathematics authorizes assignment in Mathematics. Applicants may request a transcript evaluation to assess whether courses taken at prior colleges may be considered equivalent courses to the WSU endorsement courses. Students should confer with a faculty advisor each semester to ensure the timely completion of endorsement coursework. All courses are 3 credits unless noted otherwise.
