A Master of Science in Mathematical Sciences is offered jointly by the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics and the Department of Statistical Sciences and Operations Research. The Master of Science in Mathematical Sciences offers specializations in several possible areas, including applied mathematics, mathematics, operations research, statistics, discrete structures and others. For the concentrationin pure mathematics, check M.S. in Mathematics. For a concentration in Statistical Sciences or Operations Research, visit the Stat/OR page. )
MATH 517, 518*;
a six-credit sequence selected from MATH 617-618, 620, 719, 721 and
