The Department of Mathematics and Statistics offers a graduate program of study leading to a Master of Arts degree in three areas of conentration:applied mathematics (30-33 hours), applied statistics (35 hours), and pure mathematics (30-33 hours). In the applied mathematics and pure mathematics conentrations, there is a thesis option (30 hours) and a non-thesis option (33 hours). At least half of the work credited towards the degree must be in the 600-level courses: 15 hours for the 30 hour program, and 18 hours for the 33 and 35 hour program. Course work must be approved by the department and must include certain courses as explained in the discussion of the concentrations.
