S San Francisco St, Flagstaff, AZ 86011, United States

Northern Arizona University is a public research university based in Flagstaff, Arizona. Founded in 1899, it was the final university established in the Arizona Territory. NAU is one of the three universities governed by the Arizona Board of Regents and accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.

Master of Science in Mathematics

The MS Mathematics degree program provides students the content knowledge, as well as abstract reasoning and communication skills, which constitute a broad foundation in graduate-level mathematics.  This foundation illuminates the inter-connection between different branches of mathematics and is the theoretical basis for validating and critically assessing the mathematical principles and methods necessary for continued studies in mathematics beyond the master’s degree or for work that graduates may perform in industry, education or government agencies.
 
Student Learning Outcomes

  • Graduates will demonstrate breadth and depth of knowledge in graduate-level mathematics.
    • Graduates will have acquired a broad theoretical knowledge in mathematics, particularly in the areas of Analysis, Linear Algebra, and Abstract Algebra, which are central to advanced studies in mathematics.
    • For the Comprehensive Examination option, graduates will demonstrate mastery in a focused and approved selection of three mathematical areas by successfully completing a comprehensive oral examination in these areas administered by a committee of the mathematics/statistics faculty.
    • For the Thesis option, graduates will demonstrate mastery in a focused area of mathematics and the ability to conduct independent inquiry by completing a substantial thesis in this area and defending it in front of a committee of the mathematics/statistics faculty.
  • Graduates will demonstrate the profound skills of logical mathematical reasoning which at the graduate level encompasses high degrees of abstraction and complexity.
    • Graduates will be able to read and synthesize complex formal mathematical arguments.
    • Graduates will be proficient in the independent writing of elegant proofs of significant length or complexity and in the skeptical assessment of the argumentation of others.
    • Graduates will be able to use acquired reasoning skills to read and interpret advanced mathematical literature (textbooks, journals, papers, etc.) to continue independent learning.
    • Graduates will have developed the creativity and intuition necessary for positing conjectures and deducing mathematical facts by applying established mathematical knowledge and reasoning in novel situations.
  • Graduates will communicate mathematics effectively in preparation for careers in the corporate sector, government agencies, or education or for continued graduate studies.
    • Graduates will be able to precisely communicate advanced mathematical principles and ideas with clarity and coherence, both written and verbally, demonstrating communication skills to be used in any future career.
    • Graduates will productively and creatively collaborate with peers or faculty to posit conjectures and work on mathematical problems of significant complexity demonstrating cooperative working skills to be used in any future career.

Applicants must have earned a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 out of a 4.0 scale for their bachelor’s degree to be considered for regular admission. Admitted students are expected to have undergraduate educational experiences, including general education studies, that are similar to those required for a baccalaureate at Northern Arizona University.

Applicants who have earned their degree(s) from an international institution must submit official transcripts directly from the university or college. The transcripts must be in the original language of the country accompanied by an English translation. If the degree awarded and the date of award is not on the transcripts, applicants must also include a separate degree certificate document.

English proficiency requirements:

  • TOEFL - 80
    DuoLingo - 105
    IELTS - 6.5

Immigration and visa informationAccordion Open

The privileges and responsibilities of a foreign national in the United States of America depend on the type of visa held. Therefore, is important to ensure that international graduate students obtain the appropriate visa.

Obtaining an F-1 or J-1 Visa

To obtain a visa, you should present to the nearest United States Consulate in your country the following items:

  • A Form I-20 (F-1) or a Form DS-2019 (J-1) issued by Northern Arizona University and your admission letter;
  • A valid passport;
  • Receipt of the SEVIS fee Form I-901 payment; AND
  • Proof of financial support, as stated on the Certificate of Eligibility.

It is not advisable to enter the United States on a visitor’s visa and then later request to change this to a student visa. Please note that these requests are usually denied.

Students under H-1B visa status

Prospective students under a H-1B visa are required to provide a copy of their current H-1B visa and official documentation from their employer verifying the academic studies are incidental to their employment. The Office of Graduate & Professional Studies will request this information and provide instructions upon receipt of the student’s application.
