Overview
The department maintains no division between pure and applied mathematics. It cooperates in interdisciplinary doctoral programs with the College of Education (see Teaching and Learning in the Catalog) and the Program in Applied Mathematical and Computational Sciences.
Ph.D. students in Mathematics at The University of Iowa must satisfy the following requirements for coursework (credits and breadth), examinations, foreign language, and the Ph.D. thesis.
Career Advancement
- The Pomerantz Career Center offers multiple resources to help students find internships and jobs.
Programme Structure
- Students must spend at least three years in residence at a graduate college, including at least one year at the University of Iowa. They also should enroll in specific courses designated as preparatory for the Ph.D. examinations (consult the Department of Mathematics graduate studies director).
- To further encourage mathematical breadth, students must earn at least 33 s.h. of graduate credit in regular courses equivalent to or more advanced than Ph.D. comprehensive examination preparatory courses.
