Master of Science
The mission of the Graduate Math Program at TAMU-CC is to increase understanding and the ability to apply mathematics through in-depth study, novel applications, and research. The areas of emphasis are mathematics education and applications of mathematics and statistics to environmental and gulf coast studies. The faculty engages in research and scholarly activities in these areas of emphasis and leads students through program research activities and projects or theses. The program prepares students for careers in education, science, and industry and serves the community by providing expertise to local schools, coastal industry, and research centers.
The program
Students will choose between thesis and non-thesis options. The non-thesis option is designed for students who desire a broad understanding of mathematics. The curriculum will especially benefit individuals employed in scientific, technical, or education fields who seek advancement or additional training to enhance their knowledge and skills. The thesis option starts with a broad foundation, then encourages a specialized study culminating in a thesis based upon original research, supported by the mathematical literature. The thesis master's degree will allow a person to pursue advanced graduate study, or to obtain employment in most areas that require a detailed knowledge of a specific aspect of mathematics.
