Master of Science in Mathematics (MSMTH)
Our Master of Science in Mathematics program provides students with rigorous and thorough knowledge of a broad range of pure and applied areas of mathematics. It is designed to train students with different professional goals, ranging from employment or career advancement in business, industry or government, to basic training in foundations needed to obtain a research career or pursue a PhD in mathematics or mathematics-related fields.
Program Outcomes
Upon completion of the program, graduates should be able to:
- Apply advanced mathematical analysis to mathematical models
- Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of a broad domain of mathematics from (but not all) areas such as analysis, algebra, geometry and applied mathematics
- Formulate and construct proofs
- Clearly communicate mathematical concepts
- Apply advanced mathematical techniques in their professional activities
- Conduct independent research in specialized areas of mathematics
- Employ mathematical methods to model and solve practical problems
- Formulate problems in mathematical terms arising in related areas such as engineering, finance and the natural sciences
