This is the first CUPM report to address the entire undergraduate mathematics curriculum, for all students. It is the result of four years of work including extensive consultation with hundreds of mathematicians as well as faculty from biology, chemistry, economics, engineering and other partner disciplines. The Mathematical Association of America Supported by grants from NSF and the Calculus Consortium for Higher Education Undergraduate Programs and Courses in the Mathematical Sciences: CUPM Curriculum Guide 2004 The MAA’s Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics has been publishing recommendations on the undergraduate curriculum in mathematics at roughly ten-year intervals since the early 1950’s. Through the 1970’s, these reports focused on preparing students for graduate work in mathematics. Beginning with the 1981 recommendations, attention has shifted to all majors in the mathematical sciences. This is the first report to consider not just what is appropriate for our majors, but how the undergraduate mathematics curriculum should meet the needs of all students. The Guide was published in February, 2004. It consists of 22 recommendations, organized into six general recommendations followed by sixteen recommendations intended for courses aimed at particular audiences. The Guide should not be read as an admonishment of what must be done, but rather as goals toward which we should strive. How they are achieved will depend very much on local circumstances.
