Overview

The University of Tennessee Knoxville’s Master of Mathematics is intended to support teachers as mathematicians through rigorous mathematical training in a broad range of topics. We do this by:

Incorporating evidence-based practices in our course and program design,
Creating an inclusive and diverse community of educators from different backgrounds,
Providing access to relevant material in an easily accessible format, and

Encouraging self-reflection for continued professional growth.

Highlights

Comprehensive Portfolio: Instead of a thesis or timed exam, students compile a portfolio which shows their professional growth and can be used in a job search.
Flexible Admissions: Students can apply for and start the program during the summer or fall.
Distance Education Tuition and Fees: Because our program is a fully online program, the tuition and fees are lower than that of our traditional face-to-face graduate programs.
A History of Ongoing Improvement: The program launched in the 1960s with funding from the National Science Foundation. In the 2010s, the program moved to be fully online. More recently, we have added new courses and updated existing ones. We believe in a growth mindset for our students, and that means we are continually growing as well.
