Graduate Study in Mathematics and Statistics
91视频 offers a PhD in Mathematics, a MS in Mathematics, a MS in Statistics and Data Science, and a graduate certificate in Statistics. We have 15 - 20 students in the program, allowing students to study intensively with their advisor, while still offering a breadth of coursework and areas of study. Almost all of our PhD and MS students are supported with teaching assistantships, with a few research assistantships occasionally available.
Faculty research areas in mathematics include algebraic statistics, analysis, combinatorics, computational algebra, control theory, geometric analysis, graph theory, inverse problems, mathematical biology, mathematical physics, mathematics education, numerical analysis, partial differential equations, and optics.
Faculty research interests in statistics include sampling design, biostatistics,
spatial statistics, density estimation, quality control, and design of experiments.
