The Department of Mathematics provides graduate studies culminating in a Master of Science degree. This M.S. program equips students with fundamental knowledge for professional paths in mathematics across industry, government, or academic sectors. Students can engage in original research projects mentored by faculty members. Investigate both practical and abstract mathematical concepts through Temple University's College of Science and Technology Master of Science in Mathematics program. This collaborative, cross-disciplinary curriculum readies graduates for mathematics-oriented roles in education, public sector, business, and research. The program allows students to examine mathematics from both practical and theoretical perspectives. The engaging coursework explores mathematical analysis, foundational concepts, and advanced theories, training students to tackle diverse mathematical challenges and clearly present their findings. For those interested in applying mathematical principles to real-world problems, the program features an Applied and Computational Mathematics specialization. With small class sizes and nearly one-to-one faculty guidance, students receive personalized mentorship in a close-knit academic environment. The program fosters collaborative learning through small graduate classes where students interact closely with professors and classmates. Participants may join active research teams focusing on areas like algebra, mathematical analysis, applied mathematics, computational science, geometry, topology, and probability theory. Upon completing the program, students choose between a master's thesis, comprehensive examination, or passing the PhD qualifying exam as their capstone requirement. The flexible program structure accommodates both part-time and full-time students, with completion possible within three years.
