数学哲学博士

授予该学位是为了表彰杰出的奖学金和对数学知识的原创性贡献。博士课程是专门为使学生做好在研究生水平上的教学，在学术环境以及工业和商业环境中进行数学研究的准备而设计的。现代学术学科的专业化既给那些希望在数学及其应用领域进行研究的人们带来了挑战，也为他们做出了宝贵的贡献提供了许多机会。应用数学选修课让来自不同背景的学生可以继续学习传统的应用数学课程，同时保留了全面学习应用程序选修课的选择。入学的学生不一定拥有数学学士学位。但是，他们将需要证明他们掌握了数学学士学位水平的高级微积分和线性代数的核心领域。然后，他们
This degree is awarded in recognition of distinctive scholarship and original contributions to knowledge in Mathematics. The PhD program is especially designed to prepare the student for teaching at the graduate level and doing mathematical research in academic, industrial and business settings. Students studying various fields within the realm of pure mathematics would be included in this PhD program. PhD in Mathematics (Applied Mathematics Option) The specialization of modern academic disciplines provides both a challenge to those who wish to do research at the interface of mathematics and its areas of application and many opportunities to make valuable contributions. The Applied Mathematics Option allows students from a range of backgrounds to pursue a traditional applied mathematics program, while retaining the option to thoroughly learn an area of application. Entering students may not necessarily have a bachelor's degree in Mathematics. However, they will be required to demonstrate a grasp of the core areas of advanced calculus and linear algebra at the level of a bachelor's degree in Mathematics. They will then be given great latitude to take specialized courses in Mathematics and their area of application.<br>PhD in Mathematics with Education Emphasis The degree of PhD in Mathematics with Education Emphasis is awarded in recognition of scholarship and original contributions to the teaching and learning of mathematics. The main difference from the other PhD choices is in the research focus. The requirements for this PhD include competence in core mathematics, as well as study in the research methodologies applicable to research in mathematics education.
