MS in Bioinformatics

A joint program between Marquette University and The Medical College of Wisconsin, the bioinformatics specialization is geared toward creating computing applications for the biological science. more details

MS in Computer Science

The computer science specialization is intended for students interested in advanced computer science topics, such as data mining, distributed computing, computational geometry, programming languages and symbolic computation. Emphasis is on theoretical foundations and models supported by implementation and experimental analysis. Students are well prepared for industry careers or Ph.D. studies in computer science. more details

MS in Computing

The computing program is a professional (terminal) master's degree in information technology - for individuals who wish to enhance their computing skill set or those interested in moving into the computing field. more details

MS in Mathematics

In addition to study in pure or applied mathematics, this degree specialization can be taken to have a primary focus in statistics or by combining classical mathematics graduate study with coursework in computer science and/or statistics - all within the same academic department. more details

MS in Mathematics Education -- the Special Program for Secondary School Teachers (SPSST)

The Special Program for Secondary School Teachers provides a Master of Science degree for mathematics teachers who wish to enhance their practice by deepening their understanding of mathematics and mathematics education beyond the bachelor's level. more details

PhD in Mathematics

At the current time, students may pursue Ph.D. study in mathematics or statistics. We do not offer Ph.D. study in bioinformatics or computer science.

The doctoral program is designed for individuals who are skilled at independent study and show promise for original research. Doctoral students have the opportunity to develop teaching skills in an environment that emphasizes the compatibility of good teaching with good research. The Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science has exceptional strength in algebra, biomathematics (particularly, in biological modeling using dynamical systems), logic and foundations, and statistics, thus, most doctoral students write dissertations in one of these areas. more details
