The University of Montana's Department of Mathematical Sciences offers both masters and doctoral degrees. As a compact department with diverse interests, we have a well-rounded program and considerable interaction among faculty and students.
Our regular (Option 1) Ph.D. program offers research training in algebra, analysis, combinatorics & optimization, topology, applied mathematics, mathematics education, and computer science (jointly with CS). This option may be especially appropriate for candidates aiming for faculty positions in a research-oriented department. Our graduates take positions in academia, government and business in the USA and around the world.
Our non-traditional (Option 2) Ph.D. program has given the department a national identity. It emphasizes versatility, with greater breadth across the mathematical sciences. This option may be especially appropriate for candidates aiming for teaching-focused academic positions or positions in government or industry.
