Overview
TheDepartment of Mathematicsis one of seven departments making up Purdue’s College of Science. The Department has an international reputation as an outstanding center for mathematics.
The Department offers Bachelor of Scienceand Doctor of Philosophy degrees.Bachelor of Science programsinclude Actuarial Science, Applied Mathematics, Core Mathematics,Data Science, Honors Mathematics, Mathematics and Computer Science, Mathematics for Business,Mathematics Education, and Mathematics and Statistics.
The Department will introduce a new degree plan. Data Science. A major in data science puts graduates at the forefront of an emerging field and prepares them for an exciting career at the intersection of computer science and statistics. Data Science is the interdisciplinary field of inquiry that uses quantitative and analytical methods to help gain insights and predictions based on big data. Students learn about key computational methods and statistical techniques and develop the deep analytical thinking skills needed to reason reliably, intelligently and creatively from data. The vast amounts of data generated every day has created a data-rich and data-driven world. The data science major opens pathways to careers in virtually every area of society, from healthcare, security and sustainability to education, business and economics.
The Department’s 70 professors are actively involved in current developments in many major areas of mathematics. Faculty research interests can be found in theFaculty Research Areas listor in ourFaculty directory.
