The Office of Undergraduate Education ALEKS Math Assessment UT Dallas uses the ALEKS Assessment to optimize the placement of students in their first math course. The ALEKS Assessment is offered by McGraw Hill, an educational knowledge and publishing company. ALEKS isn't a traditional exam. It's an assessment tool to help you find the course where you'll have the best chance to succeed. ALEKS also offers a guided learning program to help you improve your math skills and potentially improve your score. The assessment is an open format that does not use multiple choice questions; students may find the experience substantially different from many standardized examinations. The assessment is 2 hours. Only proctored assessments are valid for placement into UT Dallas math courses. WE STRONGLY URGE YOU TO BOOKMARK THIS PAGE UNTIL YOU NO LONGER NEED ALEKS. For questions email ALEKS Math Placement FAQ • ALEKS is used as a pre-requisite for certain math courses. • You can see all of the pre-requisites here, • You can see the ALEKS scores necessary for math placement below in the section “ALEKS Math Placement Score Table.” • TSI, SAT, ACT, and A levels are not used as a math pre-requisite and cannot be used in place of ALEKS. • New freshmen should have a proctored ALEKS score as soon as possible. • New freshmen may be required by their school to take ALEKS including Engineering and Computer Science and Natural Sciences and Mathematics. • If you are still unsure, contact your academic ...

School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences Neuroscience (BS) Neuroscience is the multidisciplinary study of nervous system function that draws on recent advances in cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics, computer, behavioral and cognitive sciences. It examines the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system's global and nanoscale biochemistry, its complex and extensively networked morphology, and its remarkably adaptive physiology. The field considers neuronal development from early embryology through advanced senescence. Further, neurobiologists examine neuronal plasticity from the level of single proteins, of individual neurons, up through the level of networks or systems of cells, and up to complete behaving organisms. Neuroscience studies the regulation and expression of behavior, the impact of that behavior on neurons, and the complex interactions of multiple neuronal systems that underlie the emergence of cognitive and sensory functions. The Neuroscience program at UT Dallas provides students with opportunities to focus on the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral neurons from a systems-level perspective, drawing on behavioral and cognitive expertise combined with cellular and molecular analyses. It allows undergraduates extensive interactions with working neuroscientists who use the latest experimental techniques. The Neuroscience program is designed to prepare students for admission to medical, dental or allied-health graduate schools (through the Me...

School of Natural Sciences and Mathematics Mathematics (BA, BS) Mathematics is both a profession and an indispensable tool for many types of work. As a tool, mathematics is a universal language that has been crucial in formulating and expressing ideas not only in science and engineering, but also in many other areas such as business and the social sciences. As probably the oldest and most basic science, it provides the key to understanding the major technological achievements of our time. Of equal importance, knowledge of mathematics may help provide a student with the type of uncompromising and clear-sighted thinking useful in considering the problems of many other disciplines. The Mathematics degree program encompasses mathematics, statistics, and applied mathematics. The Mathematical Sciences Department also administers a Students interested in obtaining either a BA or a BS in Mathematics and Teacher Certification in the state of Texas should consult the The Mathematics degree program also prepares students for graduate studies. An accelerated BS/MS Fast Track program is available which provides the opportunity for undergraduate students to satisfy some of the requirements of the master's degree while they are completing the bachelor's degree in Mathematics. The Program in Mathematics Students seeking a degree in Mathematics may choose from a variety of courses, which allow for flexibility and specialization so that students can better adapt their educational experience...
