The Master of Arts program can prepare the student for direct entry into careers in business, industry, government, and education, or for study toward a Ph.D. in mathematics, statistics, computer science, or operations research. Areas of specialization in the M.A. program are pure mathematics, statistics, and applied mathematics / scientific computation. The pure mathematics specialization is designed for students interested in obtaining a broad background in pure mathematics or in pursuing a Ph.D. degree in mathematics. The statistics specialization is designed for students interested in theory and applications of statistics and also for those planning to pursue a doctoral degree in statistics. The applied mathematics / scientific computation specialization is designed for students interested in applications of mathematics in science and industry, in particular using differential equations.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of the Master鈥檚 degree, students in the Mathematics program are expected to be able to:

Effectively explain, integrate, and apply critical concepts in mathematics/statistics

Demonstrate proficiency at mathematical/statistical problem solving in novel situations

Use appropriate technology to successfully make progress on a wide variety of mathematical/statistical tasks

Clearly communicate mathematical/statistical ideas orally and in writing
