  • At least four courses coded MATH or MATP of four credits each.
  • Each student must participate in a capstone professional experience, by registering for and completing one of the following alternatives: 1) a Master’s Project in Mathematics, MATH 6980; 2) a Master’s Practicum, MATH 6970, such as a graduate cooperative internship (a department faculty member must approve a student’s plans in advance and must certify its satisfactory completion).
