In 1996, the department established the Major Awards to recognize the most outstanding undergraduate students in each of the four majors offered by the department: Mathematics, Actuarial Science, Teaching of Mathematics, and Mathematics and Computer Science. A student may be selected once in her/his undergraduate career for such a prize.
