PhD in Mathematics

Clarkson University

We live in a world where math plays an increasingly important role in solving today's most pressing issues. The use of advanced algorithms and computational tools has expanded our understanding of math's vast applications and has also revealed how much we still need to discover. The PhD in Mathematics at Clarkson University pushes forward innovative solutions by allowing you to acquire specialized knowledge, expand an applied perspective and conduct your own research. Tackle some of the most complex problems with the confidence and know-how of an expert. Develop specialized knowledge using the resources of a technology-rich university. Through our interdisciplinary approach, collaborate across campus with different scholars and on different issues with an applied mathematical perspective. In addition to increasing your advanced fundamental knowledge of the field, complete your own research meant to bring forward innovative solutions. We are also a small department with big opportunities. Our faculty are nationally recognized math researchers, conducting studies with academic, industry and government partners. They further serve as dedicated mentors, who guide you toward your individual goals. The Department's environment is collegial and collaborative: we see you as a valuable member of our team and include you to solve research problems together. Along with research, PhD students gain valuable teaching experience by working with undergrads as teaching assistants or in other capacities.
