Overview
Features
- The Mathematics Department at The University of Iowa is dedicated to a mission of research, graduate, and undergraduate education in pure and applied mathematics, and support of the education of students in engineering, science, and the liberal arts.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- To further encourage mathematical breadth, students must earn at least 27 s.h. of graduate credit in regular courses equivalent to or more advanced than PhD comprehensive examination preparatory courses.
- For a list of accepted Department of Mathematics courses and rules to ensure proper distribution, contact the department.
- The PhD examinations consist of a qualifying exam and a comprehensive exam. Students choose three areas from the department's list of qualifying examination areas: algebra, analysis, differential equations, numerical analysis, and topology.
- For each qualifying area, there is a two-semester course sequence numbered 5000 or above that is designated as preparatory, although exams may differ from course content.
- Parts of the qualifying exam are taken over a two-week period. An exam committee gives one grade (pass, fail, conditional pass) on each part of the qualifying examination.
