If you are interested in pursuing mathematical studies beyond the bachelor's degree, whether it's just to obtain a Master's degree to pursue a career in industry or to go for a Ph.D. and a career in research or academia, these sites may provide a helpful start.  Just click on the title above.  Feel free to address any questions you may have about graduate school to the Graduate School department representatives, Dr. Macula (as contact for NSF GRF admission advice), Dr. Bigic, or Dr. Haddad (myself).  You will need to take the GREs and possibly the Math Subject GREs.  Review classes are often offered in the fall.  Be sure to ask!


If you are interested in a career in actuarial science, please contact Dr. Chi Ming Tang!
