应用数学理学硕士

该系的任务是培养学生在各种环境中使用数学和/或统计学的能力，包括行业，政府机构，各级数学教学以及从事研究数学家的职业。数学研究生课程提供文学硕士（MA）学位，包括纯数学或应用数学的中学教师，理学硕士（MS）和哲学博士（Ph.D.）硕士学位。应用数学理学硕士学位主要是末级，预专业学位，包括超出学士学位的课程，重点是与科学应用相关的领域，包括工程，生物，金融和物理科学。学生必须在与教职顾问商定的领域中撰写和捍卫论文。
The Master of Science degree in Applied Mathematics is primarily a terminal, pre-professional degree comprising coursework beyond the bachelor's degree emphasizing areas relevant to applications in the sciences and including the engineering, biological, financial and physical sciences. Students are required to write and defend a thesis in an area agreed upon with a faculty advisor.<br><br>Program Learning Outcomes<br><br>Graduates of this program will be able to:<br><br> Engage effectively in problem solving, including exploring examples, devising and testing conjectures and assessing the correctness of solutions. <br> Reason in mathematical arguments at a level appropriate to the discipline, including posing problems precisely, articulating assumption and reasoning logically to conclusions. <br> Approach mathematical problems creatively, including trying multiple approaches and modifying problems when necessary to make them more tractable.<br> Communicate mathematics clearly both orally and in writing.<br> Teach university-level mathematics effectively.<br> Obtain depth in some subdiscipline of applied mathematics.
