Overview
The emphasis of the Mathematics program from Florida Gulf Coast University is on applied mathematics, however the core courses provide a rigorous theoretical treatment of the traditional major components of the discipline. Exceptional students will be fully prepared to enter a doctoral program.
Our program offers small class sizes, opportunities for research collaboration with faculty, professional development through conference participation, and the opportunity to gain teaching experience by supporting the undergraduate pedagogical mission.
At the conclusion of the two-year program, students participate in a research seminar. One quarter of the required credits for the degree may be fulfilled by electives chosen to align with students’ special interests. The program is not thesis-based, but students sit for one core comprehensive examination after the completion of coursework, chosen by the student.
Typical career paths for graduates include actuarial science, financial analysis, statistical analysis and education on the secondary or post-secondary level.
