A PhD in pure mathematics involves comprehensive exploration across analytical, algebraic, or topological disciplines, leading to an original dissertation with findings worthy of publication. This qualification serves as the foundation for an academic pathway where scholars can pursue cutting-edge mathematical research. Mathematics professors enjoy fulfilling careers encompassing instruction, mentorship, and academic contributions. Our alumni have secured positions at regional colleges, pursued postdoctoral research, or entered various industries such as software engineering and actuarial sciences. The Mathematics doctoral program offers research prospects in fundamental mathematical areas like operator algebras, abstract algebra, topological algebra, mathematical analysis, and complex function theory.
Applicants for the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees must have completed significant undergraduate coursework in mathematics, preferably in algebra, analysis, and topology.
