MAA Guidelines for Programs and Departments

Guidelines for Programs and Departments in Undergraduate Mathematical Sciences

The MAA's Guidelines for Programs and Departments in Undergraduate Mathematical Sciences were approved by the Board of Governors in January, 2003. These guidelines were originally developed between 1990 and 1993 and were approved, in their original form, by the MAA Board of Governors in 1993, then again in revised form in August of 2000. The Guidelines are a living document. A Task Force for Revising the 1993 Guidelines was apppointed in 1997. After the August 2000 revision was approved, the task force continued to monitor the document's reception and gathered both newly available information and feedback on the document. The current version is a result of their work. A more navigable web version is also available.

The American Statistical Association (ASA) has endorsed the MAA Guidelines, and prepared a position paper to complement them. See also the ASA's Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Programs in Statistical Science.
