Master of Science in Mathematics

45.0 quarter credits

General Requirements

Students must complete a minimum of 45 graduate credits for the MS degree. Of these 15 courses, the following five are required:

Required courses
MATH 504	Linear Algebra and Analysis			3.0
MATH 505	Principles of Analysis I			3.0
MATH 506	Principles of Analysis II			3.0
MATH 533	Abstract Algebra I			3.0
MATH 630	Complex Variables I			3.0

The remaining 10 courses may be any graduate mathematics courses. In some cases, course substitutions may be made with courses from other departments. Elective courses taken outside the department must receive prior departmental approval in order to be counted toward the degree.

There are no thesis, language, or special examination requirements for the master's degree.

Students seeking a dual MS must satisfy core requirements for both degree programs.

Students should note that some departmental courses, such as Advanced Engineering Mathematics, are foundation courses and do not contribute to the departmental requirements for the degree. They do count toward the University requirements for a degree.
