The University of Kentucky offers robust academic programs covering algebra, analysis/partial differential equations, applied mathematics, combinatorics, numerical analysis, and topology. Our curriculum provides students with a comprehensive foundation to thrive in academic, industrial, or governmental careers. While maintaining rigorous standards, we foster a collaborative environment where faculty and students work closely together. Students can enhance their expertise through various research seminars, including the Graduate Student Colloquium organized by the Graduate Student Council, and by participating in local, national, and international conferences. Teaching opportunities across diverse courses and involvement in specialized instructional and outreach initiatives further enrich their experience. Our mission is to cultivate exceptional researchers and educators who emerge as influential leaders in mathematics.
The Mathematics Department awards M.A., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees. While no strict prerequisites exist for admission, we recommend two semesters of advanced calculus plus one semester each of algebra and topology. Both the M.A. and M.S. degrees require 30 credit hours, available through Plan A or Plan B. The Master of Arts program, with its focus on mathematical structures, prepares students for community college teaching or doctoral studies. The Master of Science degree emphasizes practical applications and computational skills, tailored for careers in business, industry, and government sectors.
