General Requirements for the Degree
Credit Hours
A minimum of thirty six (36) semester hours is required. At least twenty four (24) must be in mathematics at the 5000 level.
|
Program Core Requirements
Zero (0) to nine (9) credit hours depending on whether these courses were taken at the undergraduate level:
Concentration Core Requirements
One of the following six-hour sequences:
Advanced Differential Equations
Applied Math for Science and Engineering
Numerical Solutions of PDEs
Concentration Directed Electives
Six (6) credit hours chosen from:
Area of Application
Students may complete a minimum of six (6) credit hours in an area of application or an internship. The student and his or her graduate program committee will jointly decide upon the area of application or internship, and must be approved by the Graduate Coordinating Committee. It should be consonant with the chosen concentration. An oral presentation and a written report on the internship or area of application are required. Typically, students choosing an area of application will complete coursework in another department or college such as Business, Economics, Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, or Biology. In keeping with the interdisciplinary nature of this program, if a student chooses an area of application, the Graduate Coordinating Committee will ask that a representative from the outside area be added as an additional member of the student’s graduate program committee. Students choosing the internship option will usually collaborate with a local business. Options include businesses in the health insurance field, industrial and manufacturing industries, engineering firms, etc.
Electives
Students must complete additional elective hours as needed to complete the degree. In addition, a special project (0-3 hours) or a thesis (6 hours) may be chosen to fulfill part of these elective hours. Prior to enrolling in MATH 5900 , MATH 5998r , or MATH 5999r , a student choosing to do a project or thesis must have the topic approved by his or her graduate program committee and the Graduate Coordinating Committee and must submit the committee form to the Graduate School for final approval.
